The SCO case is dead and no one will stop their Linux deployments

litigation against Linux. It would mean that Microsoft itself would be
exposed to the wrath of the Linux and OSS community but I'd say that
they're already hurting big time so they have little to lose.
What would they sue on?
And more importantly, who would they sue? Sure they could go after the
companies like Red Hat but they'll get nowhere fast against the
community. That's the problem from M$'s POV.
