Apparently NOVEL ownes SYSTEM V not SCO

SCO: "Doh!"

I like this bit...
"SCO continues to say that it owns the UNIX System V patents, yet it must 
know that it does not. A simple review of U.S. Patent Office records 
reveals that Novell owns those patents.

"Importantly, and contrary to SCO's assertions, SCO is not the owner of the 
UNIX copyrights. Not only would a quick check of U.S. Copyright Office 
records reveal this fact, but a review of the asset transfer agreement 
between Novell and SCO confirms it."

simple
system that worked."
