Lenovo’s September Surprise: Servers
,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Novell SuSE Linux seem to be the safe bets, The
| VAR Guy speculates. But our resident blogger wonders if Canonical’s Ubuntu
| Linux will somehow wrestle its way onto Lenovo’s server systems.

Where Red Hat (And Its Partners) Profit Most
,----[ Quote ]
| Sure, Canonical’s Ubuntu Linux and Novell SuSE Linux (to some extent) earn
| headlines each time they win a new business deal. But during preliminary OEM
| negotiations, Enzweiler determined that PC companies “basically wanted it
| [desktop Linux] for free.” At such low prices, Enzweiler worries that Linux
| distributors may wind up compromising their support models to gain market
| share on the desktop.
|
| Still, The VAR Guy wonders: Should Red Hat find a bit more time for desktop
| Linux? Remember, Microsoft used its desktop position in the 1990s as a
| springboard onto the server. Canonical hopes to do the same with Ubuntu
| Linux.
