Sco losses pile up, and the company says (according to this CNET article):

SCO blamed the revenue decrease on competitive pressures and a major drop in the company's effort to license its Unix intellectual property.

Ayup. I'm sure it had nothing to do with that stupid lawsuit.

On the positive side, SCO still is planning to release "Legend", the long awaited OS that will tie together Unixware and Openserver in one system. It's been delayed, but they say it is coming mid 2005.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
