Who really owns Unix?

The answer is not as simple as it appears, because while SCO got the code, the trademark and spec are owned by an industry consortium, The Open Group, as explained here. (There's a little more on The Open Group's lawsuit against Apple here.) It'snot obvious but Allen Brown is CEO of The Open Group.
