An IBM executive has claimed that a "set of forces" is attempting to 
derail Linux, and hinted that Microsoft and SCO Group are among those 
responsible. 

Al Zollar, a general manager of sales for IBM eServer iSeries, told 
delegates attending the company's Asia Pacific Strategic Planning 
Conference in Queensland, Australia, on Tuesday that a "set of forces" 
was attempting to stymie adoption of the open-source operating system. 

"They're mostly located in Redmond, although they have recruited a few 
allies," said Zollar. Microsoft has its headquarters in Redmond, Wash. 

Zollar then indicated that SCO was part of the alliance. The company, 
based in Lindon, Utah, has made intellectual property claims to certain 
code contained in some versions of Linux and is maneuvering to gather 
license fees from commercial applications of the operating system. . .
