SCO Bankrupt
The Associated Press reports that the SCO Group has filed for bankruptcy. SCO claimed ownership of the UNIX operating system in numerous lawsuits against vendors of Linux, an open-source UNIX clone. A U.S. district court ruled earlier this year that Novell, not SCO, owns the copyrights in UNIX. Columbia Prof. Eben Moglen says UNIX is no longer useful as corporations turn to Linux instead.
