    Revenge is just as plausible. Google groups was recently used to dig
    up evidence that SCO knowingly contributed to Linux code (which
    conflicts with their response to IBM).

    to fight their lawyers. Once a few little guys rollover or lose, SCO
    can start claiming precedent and get the fear factor up.
