Comment But what about Apple (Score 2, Insightful) 469
The same interview includes the following gem.
"System V is the basis for all operating systems outside of Redmond-AIX, HP UX, Solaris, Apple and Linux." --Darl McBride, Apr 24 2003.
So does Apple pay royalies to SCO? I thought that Apple MAC OS9 and earlier had nothing to do with Un*x and MAC OSX was based upon BSD which is a noticable exception to the list probably due to pervious legal precidents.
Looks like after IBM, we will see Apple in the firing line.
