SCO is not a random idiot.
Microsoft introduced SCO to an investment firm, named BayStar Financing.
BayStar then invested $50 million into SCO.
And Microsoft funneled $86 million into BayStar.

I think you need to phrase that as a question. :-)
My point is that if it wasn't SCO it would be somebody else, and if it wasn't over owning the System V source code and the original copyright on knock-knock jokes, it would be the names of the root folders in the UNIX filesystem.
