SCO has had a strong hold in the POS (point of sale)
market (smart cash registers). Quite frankly if I were
a current SCO POS client I would be walking as quickly
away from them as practical. Some firms may have
thousands of POS boxes out in the field, and changing
their OS is NOT something that can be done overnight,
but the writing is on the wall, one of the firms SCO
is battling in court will take them OUT.
