cut the crap, Linux is UNIX?

It would seem that at least one version of GNU/Linux is UNIX.

I think you will find despite throwing millions of dollars at lawyers, The SCO Group could not prove that Linux was Unix.

They couldn't prove it wasn't derived from the System V sources, but it turned out Novell owned them anyway so it was a non issue. (An expensive non issue mind!)
