Yeah, but wouldn't that mean that SCO Unix had to be open sourced? Or did
they buy the rights?
While I mostly can't believe anyone would want SCO Unix, I do know that
they ran a lot of cash registers, or maybe they were the server, I dunno,
somehow point of sale and SCO was a thing a long time ago. So maybe it
is a legacy thing?
