CustomTech SCO Mini-FAQ
Q: CustomTech
is a well known supporter of Linux and Open Source, so why partner with
SCO?
A: CustomTech
has customers that depend on SCO software. We are committed to provide
top grade support to our customers and remaining a SCO partner
helps
us do this.
Q: But
can't
SCO users just migrate to Linux?
A: We
have helped
customers migrate from SCO to Linux. But for some customers it is
too expensive to change platforms. However, over time we expect most
SCO customers
will migrate to Linux when it makes sense for their specific business
needs.
Q: How
did CustomTech
get involved with SCO?
A: CustomTech
was the first company to distribute Caldera Inc's OpenLinux in
Australia
in 1998 and worked closely with Caldera Inc. Caldera Inc was
effectively
swallowed by SCO in 2001 and ultimately their Linux offerings were
discontinued and legal attacks mounted against Linux.
