Does this mean that IBM thinks they own the rights to UNIX and are going after companies that have not licensed it properly?

No, it means IBM plans to crush SCO and its collaborators for their attempted fraud and extortion. Time for some popcorn...

I must be missing something... Fraud and extortion?

Can you give us a high level description of the problem?

SCO is "Santa Cruz Operation" right? And they sell UNIX operating systems? Did they steal the source code from IBM and give it to the other companies?

Thanks
