"On the same day that CA blasted SCO, Open Source evangelist Eric Raymond
revealed a leaked email from SCO's strategic consultant Mike Anderer to their
management. The email details how, surprise surprise, Microsoft has arranged
virtually all of SCO's financing, hiding behind intermediaries like Baystar
Capital."

"...Microsoft wished to promote SCO and its pending lawsuit against IBM and the
Linux operating system. But Microsoft did not want to be seen as attacking IBM
or Linux."

"Mr. Emerson and I discussed a variety of investment structures wherein
Microsoft would 'backstop,' or guarantee in some way, BayStar's investment....
Microsoft assured me that it would in some way guarantee BayStar's investment
in SCO."

Microsoft loves competition.
