"Linux's rapid maturity--for example, growing up to work on large
multiprocessor servers--is
evidence of the presence of Unix intellectual property, the SCO suit said.
"It is not possible
for Linux to rapidly reach Unix performance standards for complete
enterprise functionality
without the misappropriation of Unix code, methods or concepts to achieve
such performance,
and coordination by a larger developer such as IBM," the suit said."
Someone can't get their mind around what open source and shared development
are capable of.
