I doubt SCO really has a case, but Microsoft is just as liable for distributing infringing code as Red Hat or Suse might be. They just happen to be able to pay off any court awarded judgement. Remember that they were found guilty of illegally leveraging their Windows monopoly since Caldera/SCO settled the first Operating System suit AND they were also found guilty of software piracy since then. No MS needed to buy some insurance on this one and simply used the press it attracted to spread a little Linux FUD.
