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.
