SCO is not against Open Source... They are only against of abuse of proprietary software by open source developers.

One example is, as you see in the article, the number of open source applications in OpenServer 6 and how SCO embraces them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.60.161.0 (talk) 15:19, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Lol, yeah right. SCO definately isn't against Open Source.

 * It's funny, SCO has not filed a single lawsuit against anyone for copyright infringement for using Linux (Autozone was about Autozone copying libraries themselves, internally, from Unix to Linux), but it is SCO that is being sued for infringing IBM's Linux copyrights. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rm6990 (talk • contribs) 02:14, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
 * That doesn't mean SCO is in favor of Open Source, just that they are happy to make use of things they don't have to pay fees to include. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.66.70.18 (talk) 19:57, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

The following paragraph sounds too much like a press release. Can it not be made more encyclopedia and also respect the NPOV? E.g. "greatly increased file system performance" - do we have evidence for that beyond the advertising of the company?

"The SCO Group, on June 22, 2005, released OpenServer 6.0, codenamed "Legend", which is the culmination of a multi-year multi-million dollar development effort and the first release in the new 6.0.x branch of releases. SCO OpenServer 6 is based upon the System V Release 5 UNIX kernel and features multi-threading application support for C, C++, and Java applications through the POSIX interface. OpenServer 6 features kernel-level threading (not found in 5.0.x), and is bundled with a wealth of open-source applications including Apache, Samba, MySQL, OpenSSH, Mozilla Firefox, KDE, and much more. It also has many other improvements over OpenServer 5 including incredibly improved SMP support supporting up to 32 x86-family processors on a single server, support for files over 1 terabyte on a partition (larger network files supported through NFSv3), greatly increased file system performance, up to 64GB of memory, backward-compatibility for applications developed for Xenix 286 onwards, and much more. OpenServer 6 is currently available from a number of SCO resellers." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.36.234.10 (talk) 00:50, 4 March 2006‎
 * Agreed, I cleaned up the paragraph and removed a bunch of the marketing speak. Any suggestions, edit away or post here.  Gantry 05:46, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

I attempted to word the purchase of Unix from Novell to reflect court hearings. Turbowsr 15:07, 26 August 2007 (UTC).

Removal of 'The Future' Section
Should that "The Future" section be removed? Its slightly off topic for this article, and is rife with spelling errors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Achilles2.0 (talk • contribs) 13:56, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Sco kde.PNG
Image:Sco kde.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Who uses SCO?
Perhaps a section on who uses SCO and what for would be interesting. I know quite a few retailers use SCO for Point Of Sales. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.231.42.101 (talk) 21:03, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
