Corel has nothing to do with SCO.  Corel is the Linux system that Corel
Corp. (maker of CorelDraw) used to sell. When they moved out of the
Linux business, a company called Xandros took over.

I think you are thinking of Caldera.  They merged with SCO and became
this evil entity.  Has nothing to do with Corel, though.
