On March 7th 2003, the SCO Group filed a lawsuit against IBM for misappropriation of tradesecrets and contractual agreements. The scope of SCOs complaint is that IBM introduced parts of Unix System V and Project Monterey into the Linux kernel. Project Monterey was a effort to port IBM's AIX 5L onto the Intel Itanium platform, IBM withdrew from that project for reasons unknown according to the press, I believe that it was because the Itanium is a bomb.

i am so going to laugh if all you linux zealots are WRONG and ibm does lose the case and SCO is correct. sorry to say, but why are you all dead on positive that they are not in the right?
about the comment, IF SCO wins, they will change the code, that is stolen, it was still stolen in the first place and people are still going to pay royalties.
