First, if you're going to bring this up at a Silicon Valley dinner party, you need to know that SCO is never pronounced S-C-O. It's "skoh." Rhymes with Homer Simpson's exclamation, "Doh!"
SCO is making headlines because it has pulled off an unusual feat: It has made nearly everyone in tech, and nearly every corporation that buys technology, spitting-nails mad at it. I say nearly everyone because Microsoft likes SCO the way the U.S. liked Saddam back when Iraq was at war with Iran. The enemy of my enemy is my friend that kind of thing.
