- Lindows.com Revelation Could Be Fatal Blow to SCO Case, May 30, 2003

LinspireAccording to the way the GPL works, any code that is legally in a GPL licensed program must be placed under the GPL. Simply put, this means that Lindows.com's Linux kernel must consist only of GPL'ed code. If Lindows.com has indeed licensed enough of SCO's intellectual property to make its distribution legal in SCO's eyes, it has purged the Linux kernel of the "poisonous fruit" (if any actually exists)
