Not surprising

I don't find this suprising at all. The fact of the matter is, many of SCO's actions do not make sense from the point of view of a company trying to make money - even for a company that is trying to make money just through litigation. SCO's current masters may be nasty people but they are not stupid. Why would they pursue expensive court cases that they have little chance of winning? Perhaps because Microsoft has identified that their best attack against Linux is to make people worried about the legal implications of using it, and so MS has promised SCO to pay them (indirectly) to make as much trouble as possible.
