Update on the 'net... SCO acknowledged that the memo is genuine, but they say it was taken out of context.  

Microsoft say they are paying SCO for a legitimate service, but are not funeling funds to them surreptitiously.

An email sent by an anonymous whistleblower to a biased source who cannot certify its authenticity.
That's not what I call proof.

        "There you have it. A hundred million funnelled from Microsoft to SCO, of which they have $68.5 million left. Their 10Qs reveal that every other line of cash inflow is statistical noise by comparison. The brave new SCOsource business model is now clear: sue your customers, shill for Microsoft, kite your stock, and pray you stay out of jail."

        I hope that the EU comes down so hard against Microsoft that they practically have to close up shop in Europe.

        If this is not anti-trust, restraint of trade, I don't know what is.
