SCO Doesn't Plan Additional Suits Against Linux Users

CEO Darl McBride said the company will wait for decisions in SCO's lawsuits
against IBM and AutoZone Inc. before deciding whether to move ahead with
additional litigation, company spokesman Blake Stowell said in a telephone
interview from the SCO Forum in Las Vegas. "Our strategy for now is to focus all
of our legal team's resources on our current cases," Stowell said. "The outcome
from the legal system will set the precedent for how we will proceed with any
future litigation."

n the IBM case, SCO is seeking $5 billion in damages, claiming IBM violated its
Unix license by contributing SCO's copyrighted code to Linux. IBM has denied the
allegations and has counter-sued for patent infringement and other claims. The
trial on SCO's suit is scheduled for next year.
