I think that depends on what SCO (and when) claimed as evidence.  They
did present slides of obfuscated code (replacing ASCII with Greek
letters in the assumption that nobody could recognize the original and
maybe that the code was too precious to show in the orignal).  I can't
find that any more, and maybe its on one of the many dead links on
http://www.lemis.com/grog/SCO/.  But
http://www.lemis.com/grog/SCO/code-comparison.php refers to it and
identifies the errors in the claims.

I'd be very interested to hear what else they presented.  Did your
conclusions agree with mine?
