Just so. I have a couple boxes of Caldera CDs -- going back to when a 
non-free desktop called "Looking Glass" was the default -- and delighted 
in it when Darl McBride and his happy band of raiders said that the Linux 
that their company distributed was illegal. It was even funnier that after 
SCalderaO was sending letters to Linux users demanding payment there was 
still Linux available for free download on the SCO website.

No matter the merits -- and I believe they had none -- they deserved to 
lose on grounds of stupidity. Last I heard, some lawyer discovered a 
dollar of SCO money not already in lawyers' hands and filed to reopen the 
lawsuit(s).
