Plaintiff Xinuos, Inc. (“Xinuos”), for its Complaint against Defendants International Business Machines Corp. (“IBM”) and Red Hat, Inc. (“Red Hat”) alleges on knowledge as to itself, its own acts and facts known to it and reasonable inferences therefrom, and on information and belief as to all other matters, as follows: 2. This case is simple. IBM and Red Hat conspired to illegally corner a market and crush competition. First, IBM stole Xinuos’ intellectual property and used that stolen property to build and sell a product to compete with Xinuos itself. Second, stolen property in IBM’s hand, IBM and Red Hat illegally agreed to divide the relevant market and use their growing market powers to victimize consumers, innovative competitors, and innovation itself. Third, after IBM and Red Hat launched their conspiracy, IBM then acquired Red Hat to solidify and make permanent their scheme. Fourth, IBM has been misleading its investors by falsely claiming all infringement claims against IBM regarding the copied code have been waived. 3. IBM and Red Hat have engaged in this well-worn, anticompetitive conduct in order to corner the market for operating system software that companies rely on to use servers.

  • IBM and ORACLE COLLABORATE to ADVANCE PROJECT MONTEREY Submitted By: Pleon Monday, 15 November 1999
    IBM AND ORACLE COLLABORATE TO ADVANCE PROJECT MONTEREY Submitted by: Pleon Monday, 15 November 1999 -Oracle Plans to Deliver Key Technologies within AIX, Monterey/64- IBM and Oracle today announced a comprehensive initiative in support of AIX and Monterey/64*. As part of this initiative, IBM and Oracle will offer Oracle Internet Directory within AIX and Monterey/64 as a directory option to customers. Furthermore, Oracle expects to port its database and application suites, currently available on AIX, to Monterey/64. This collaboration significantly advances Project Monterey, which is expected to provide customers with a secure and reliable UNIX platform from which to deploy their critical e-business applications. "By offering Oracle technology and applications with AIX and Monterey/64, customers will have increased choice and flexibility to implement new e-business solutions quickly and easily," said Rajiv Samant, general manager, UNIX, IBM. "The agreement marks an expansion of the business and technology relationship between IBM and Oracle on AIX and Monterey/64. The expected addition of Oracle's database and application suites is a further milestone in making the Project Monterey product line the leading UNIX platform for customers and software providers." "The integration of Oracle technology into AIX and Monterey/64 moves us toward solving several key challenges our customers face in becoming effective e-businesses," said Michael Rocha, senior vice president of Platform Technologies, Oracle Corporation. "Together, Oracle and IBM are providing a scalable, reliable solution across a broad spectrum of computing architectures that creates lasting stability, quality and reliability for our customers. This agreement helps make AIX and Monterey/64 a preferred Oracle platform for its strategic enterprise UNIX on IBM's POWER and Intel's IA-64 architectures." "Oracle's support for Monterey/64 is a tremendous step forward in delivering the industry's leading enterprise UNIX platform for Itanium processor-based systems," said Doug Michels, SCO's CEO and president.

    Case 2:03-cv-00294-DN Document 1160 Filed 02/08/16 Page 1 of 65 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF UTAH, CENTRAL DIVISION THE SCO GROUP, INC., A DELAWARE ORDER GRANTING IBM’S [783] CORPORATION; MOTION FOR PARTIAL SUMMARY JUDGMENT Plaintiff, 2:03-CV-00294-DN v. District Judge David Nuffer INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION, Defendant. This case arises out of the relationship between The SCO Group, Inc. (“SCO”) and International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM”) regarding IBM’s production of its LINUX operating system. SCO held a majority of the UNIX-on-Intel market with its UNIX operating system in 1998 when IBM and SCO agreed to collaborate to produce a new operating system, Project Monterey. SCO claimed that IBM used this project to gain access SCO’s UNIX source code and then copied thousands or millions of lines of that code into LINUX. Because LINUX was offered at no cost in the open-source community, it rapidly displaced UNIX, and SCO’s UNIX sales rapidly diminished. SCO publicized the alleged copyright infringement and the alleged wrongs committed by IBM, and IBM argued that SCO’s tactics were improper and in bad faith, and that it had the right to use any lines of code it added to LINUX. Previously in this litigation, many claims have been resolved. This order addresses SCO’s tortious interference claims, granting summary judgment on those claims in favor of IBM. 1 Case 2:03-cv-00294-DN Document 1160 Filed 02/08/16 Page 2 of 65 TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents ...........................................................................................................................

  • An Investigation of How Commercial Software Companies Should React to Open Source Software
    An Investigation of How Commercial Software Companies Should React to Open Source Software UW CSEP 590 TU Course Project December 10, 2004 Patrick Haluptzok, Bipin Karunakaran, Rodrick Megraw, Magdalene Tatum, James Welle, and Song Xue Abstract Open source software began as the hobby of a small number of programmers and has developed today into a worldwide phenomenon that is a viable economic alternative to proprietary software. As a proprietary software company, it is essential that you understand open source and how to interact with this type of software. You may choose to compete with open source or embrace it into your business model, but ignoring open source is not a viable option. We present this paper as a guide to open source software. First, we discuss what open source is and explain its history. We also explain the general advantages and disadvantages of open source software. Second, we explain the myriad of open source licenses and how they work. Next, we discuss how your workforce can safely and effectively coexist and interact with open source software. In the fourth section of the paper, we discuss the different open source business models and the benefits of each. Fifth, we discuss the specific legal issues involved with open source software and we highlight the recent SCO litigation. Finally, we present a case study on Microsoft Windows and other proprietary platforms and investigate how they have reacted to the open source phenomenon. We also investigate possible open source strategies for the Windows operating system.
