HP and Likewise to release Linux-based storage line
,----[ Quote ]
| These HP StorageWork servers will use Likewise-CIFS,
| a high-performance, commercially supported,
| Windows-compatible file server, and Likewise
| Identity Service. Likewise-CIFS started as a
| commercially supported Samba but is now a CIFS
| (Common Internet File System) server in its own right.
| Likewise Identity Service is an Active Directory bridge
| technology providing authentication of non-Windows systems
| to Microsoft's Active Directory.

HP Then and Now
,----[ Quote ]
| A few years ago, HP bought Neoware which
| produced several thin clients running GNU/Linux.

| [...]
|
| HP is willing to satisfy customers who demand
| GNU/Linux but they charge a premium. They are
| partners in crime with M$ in spite of all the
| harm M$ has done them. HP is still the #1 OEM in
| the world but they will not be for long selling
| $1000 thin clients. The Chinese are selling thin
| clients for less than $100 in bulk.
