[plug] SCO gobbledegook

I seem to sort of remember SCO saying that because IBM wasn't offering a
legal protection it was an admission that Linux was tainted, now we find
that the opposite is also true. Wonder what they were sniffing.

  "HP's  actions  this morning reaffirm the fact that enterprise end users running Linux are exposed 
  to  legal  risks,"  SCO  said  in  a  statement.  "Rather  than  deny the existence of substantial 
  structural  problems  with  Linux  as many Open Source leaders have done, HP is acknowledging that 
  issues exist and is attempting to be responsive to its customers' request for relief. HP’s actions 
  are driving the Linux industry towards a licensing program. In other words, Linux is not free."
