Computer Associates International Inc. said on Monday it has licensed the freely available Linux operating system software from SCO -- a move that could become key legal ammunition for the SCO Group Inc. in a battle over who owns the software.
SCO Group, which claims ownership over parts of Linux, is suing distributors and users of the software system in what has become a highly contentious legal battle among technology makers, and technology lawyers said each licensee SCO signs helps bolster its case.
