Whether or not Sun is still making or supporting Cobalt in a few years
wouldn't have any effect on users if Sun didn't indemnify Cobalt users.
I'm sure a few years from now there will still be thousands of Cobalt
servers in use. According to the article Solaris customers are
protected. Since SCO may be serving papers on users now, the time may
have already come.
