From ThinPlanet, a new development in the competitive arena:

"Given Citrix's solid products and dominant position in the industry, they will continue to be the industry leader quite some time. However, SCO is ready to give them a healthy dose of competition and they are making their intentions clear. To jump start the competitive battle, SCO has announced an aggressive campaign that will attempt to eat away at Citrix's market share. Under the promotion, current Citrix users can migrate to Tarantella by paying for just one Tarantella license for every ten existing MetaFrame licenses they replace with a Tarantella license.

The initial target for Tarantella will be large organizations that have heterogeneous application server environments. Customers that have standardized on Windows applications are not likely to look at Tarantella, as it provides no significant benefits over Terminal Server or MetaFrame in a pure Windows environment. However, for customers that require access to UNIX and/or mainframe applications in addition to Windows, Tarantella now provides a unique value proposition that is worth considering."

To put that in proper context, you really have to read the entire article:
