They have been implying that because of the purchase they now "own" Linux. They are even going law suit happy including trying to hit up IBM for billions of dollars because IBM is now supporting Linux. There are other suits and claims pending as well. One gets the impression that SCO has decided its easier to make money with Linux by suing people rather than turning Caldera into a distribution people will prefer to use. Its because of these suits that many people have stopped using Caldera. HTH, C
