SCO signs up first Linux licensee | |
|

| Time: 04:31 EST/09:31 GMT | News Source: ZDNet UK | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||

SCO Group, the Unix copyright holder that's threatening Linux-using companies with legal action if they don't pay for a licence to run the open-source operating system, said on Monday that one company in the Fortune 500 list of the world's biggest corporations had been convinced by its arguments. SCO declined to say which company took out the licence or to reveal licensing specifics. The company said the deal illustrates the merits of its case, but analysts said the undisclosed terms of the deal could mean that it offered a good price to try to build momentum for its plan. SCO denied that it offered a special deal. SCO spokesman Blake Stowell said the unnamed company paid a "slight discount" to the price SCO announced last week. The unnamed company bought licences "for a large number of servers" and will have to pay more if it buys more Linux servers, Stowell added. | ||
