Don't worry, Saqib. Think about it this way: the same company claiming
HP is on its side is also trying to claim they're the ones that "own"
Linux. I suppose if you believe one, you might believe the other.
Unfortunately there are a lot of folks out there willing to be bullied.
I get a Microsoft deja-vu whenever I hear the name SCO.
Whether SCO gets anywhere with their claims is entirely another matter.
How many times have we watched P2P programs disappear only for others to
crop up in their place? Or chat programs? Or operating systems? You
name it, when there's a problem with one, something else always comes
along to replace it.
The open source community won't let anything happen to Linux. As soon
as the alleged problem is found, IF a problem is found, it will be
fixed, and we'll all carry on as usual. SCO's blowing hot air, which
isn't difficult, given the questionable integrity of the morons running
the show over there.
All we can do is watch, and eventually laugh....... :D
