SCO Sells Its UNIX Product Line To London Firm 95
An anonymous reader writes "SCO just forged a deal to sell its UNIX product line to Gulf Capital Partners LLC of London. Under the terms of the deal, SCO would continue to exist as a separate company helmed by Darl McBride, with its primary remaining assets being related to its mobile platform offerings. However, it's noted that this deal must be approved by the court, and should not be considered 'done' yet. It could fall through as others have in the past."

I'm surprised they bothered. If systems are that legacy it would probably be cheaper to virtualize them. More interesting but perhaps legally iffy would be to fund an open source project to emulate the SCO system calls and core libraries. Something like lxrun but for SCO so that apps can be ported and run on any other x86 OS.
