Linux isn't in trouble. Heck, Linux practically CAN'T be in trouble, unless SCO somehow pulls a miracle out of their collective shorts and wins their case. And even then, they'd have to follow that one up with successfully invalidating the GPL before Linux was fully toast.

Here's a clue for you: Every single Linux distro company could go belly up, and Linux fans would still be able to use Linux, make their own distros, form new start-up companies on Linux, etc. Because the code is already out there, and nothing disappears forever from the internet.
