SCO Group section

While trying to cite and update and fact-check the information about Norris's purchase of SCO/Unix assets, it became so convoluted and hard to research or cite or follow or parse, that when I found a lot of the details in the Xinuos wiki article, I decided to simply copy the information from that article to this one. Feel free to trim any information in that section that is too lengthy or extraneous. Trementere (talk) 06:06, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I trimmed it by about 15%, but it might warrant further trimming. Trementere (talk) 23:44, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
