Portland lets desktop Linux roll for VARs
,----[ Quote ]
| My pharmacist got a Linux box this week.
|
| He didn't choose to run Linux. His Value Added Reseller (VAR)
| did. The new system connects with the same online resources
| as the old one, it has nifty black flat screen monitors, and
| the printer output looks better to patients.
|
| This is where desktop Linux is right now. It's in the hands
| of VARs, developers, integrators and vertical market
| specialists. Folks with specific industry knowledge
| connect specific customers to specific resources
| seamlessly, add their own proprietary tweaks, and
| sell the results on to small offices and small businesses.
