SCO boss: I was offered $2 million by Utah's top prosecutor

     As we noted at the time of his firing, "McBride was the architect and
     public face of SCO's misguided campaign against Linux. He claimed that
     the open source operating system infringed on SCO's copyright and
     included a significant quantity of code stolen from Unix System V. On
     the basis of this claim, SCO threatened to sue a multitude of
     corporate Linux users and demanded hefty licensing fees."
