<b> SCO: Buy License, Avoid Suit </b>
http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,59701,00.html

The SCO Group said Monday it is offering commercial Linux users a license that will protect them from forthcoming legal action by the software maker.

<b>The company also said in a statement that all commercial Linux users are software pirates. </b>

"Since the year 2001 commercial Linux customers have been purchasing and receiving software that includes misappropriated Unix software owned by SCO," said Chris Sontag, SCO senior vice president.

"While using pirated software is copyright infringement, our first choice in helping Linux customers is to give them an option that will not disrupt their IT infrastructures. We intend to provide them with choices to help them run Linux in a legal and fully paid-for way."
