Chris,

Are you sure about this??

Unixware is what SCO bought from Novell.  A year ago, when I bought my
media pack of SCO Openserver 5.05, Unixware was what SCO was migrating
to.  Xenix had become, after many versions changes, Openserver.

I heard about a deal with Caldera, but I thought SCO basically bought
part of Caldera, and SCO was going to compe out with with a version of
Linux.  SCO had already been selling support for Open Linux.

I guess I am going to have to dig around in press releases.
