Actually, the difference here is that Linux DIDN'T use any code that SCO owns so the comparison is irrelevant.

As Linus Torvalds pointed out at one point or another, SCO is basically playing it like the Raelians. If you don't remember, that was the group that said they cloned a baby and wouldn't provide the proof at all and when they did it was by their own panel of "experts." Likewise, SCO files lawsuit after lawsuit based on this alleged code that Linux contains, yet over and over when the courts ask to see this code they won't show it, and the courts by the way are getting pretty pissed off about this by now. Furthermore, the little bits of this alleged code that have been exposed were debunked in a matter of a couple days if that.
