SCO OpenServer

SCO OpenServer 5, released in 1995, would become SCO's primary product and serve as the basis for products like PizzaNet (the first Internet-based food delivery system done in partnership with Pizza Hut) and SCO Global Access, an Internet gateway server based on Open Desktop Lite. To compete with Windows NT and Linux, by 1997 SCO was distributing single-user licenses for educational use for $19, the cost of the CD-ROM, or completely free at trade shows. Due to its large installed base, SCO OpenServer 5 continues to be actively maintained by SCO with major updates having occurred as recently as September 2018.
