According to this article, Novell has just purchased Suse
for $210 million:

   I think this is A Good Thing for Linux. Not so good for
Red Hat or Mandrake's enterprise efforts. But, the first thing
that crossed my mind (actually Novell - SuSE acquisition has
been rumored for a while), is how will this affect the SCO
fiasco?  Novell has rights to Unix code licensing, and can
amend SCO's rights, which are subordinate. Or so Novell
claims, and SCO is reluctant to admit.
   

And now, what's next ? - IBM buys Mandrake ?

And go closed source ?
