Well, that and the inevitable class action lawsuit against SCO by the companies that paid them license fees for software they didn't own the rights to in the first place. ;-)
"In a decision that may finally settle one of the most bitter legal battles surrounding software widely used in corporate data centers, a federal district court judge in Utah ruled Friday afternoon that Novell, not the SCO Group, is the rightful owner of the copyrights covering the Unix operating system."

It's interesting to note that SCO's share price only dropped by 1 cent following the news, having already dropped to about 8% of its high point in 2003. I guess the market knew it was coming.
