To me the SCO business model sounds a lot like the car sales business:

Lots of parallels between the dot.com boom/bust and what happened to the 
auto industry.  Like sueing customers of competitors:

What we have here is a maturing industry as it becomes commoditized.  SCO
is fighting that trend.  It seems ugly, but its another example how an
organized business fights to evolve into something greater.

Some might argue SCO is a cancerous growth that threatens our vitality as 
a technological leader.
