Not realistic maybe.

And why should IT managers care? So what if Microsoft/Sun/Novell/IBM/etc. all sue each other into oblivion? That doesn't affect their customers. SCO added a new wrinkle by suing their own customers. Well OK, not even that, as in the Daimler-Chrysler case. Just a big fat straw man.
