Time: 05:47 EST/10:47 GMT | News Source: Associated Press | Posted By: Bill Roach

SAN JOSE — SCO Group's $1 billion lawsuit against IBM for allegedly giving away trade secrets in its open-source Linux programs is a potential boon to Microsoft and other proprietary software companies.

IBM spokesman Joe Stunkard said yesterday that the complaint was "full of bare allegations with no supporting facts."
