I would be surprised if SCO sells a single copy.  I would also be
surprised if this would hold up in court -- even if 20% of the kernel
were SCO IP, they would not have the right to redistribute the other
80%.

I want a list of anyone that buys this stuff.  Something tells me it
would be interesting.
