| Damian Reeves, CTO of Zeus, says his company is "relatively
| unconcerned" about any potential impact on Linux vendors and the
| Linux installed base. "There's a parallel with the IBM v. SCO
| dispute of a couple years ago when there was a lot of concern
| about whether using Linux was legal. That became a bit of a
| non-story and this may play out in a similar way," he says.
| He adds that any customers that are concerned about the issue
| can opt for Novell's SuSE Linux, which is covered by a
| Microsoft-Novell agreement that indemnifies customers
| against any legal liability.
