Linuxcare returns with focus in the cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| Back in Linux's early days, Linuxcare
| emerged as the first important Linux
| support company. In 1998, the company made
| headlines not just in the technology press
| but in mainstream business publications
| like the Wall Street Journal as the
| company that would help businesses switch
| over to Linux. It was not to last. Poor
| top management decisions led Linuxcare to
| lose first its way, and, then, years
| later, to quietly vanish. Now, one of its
| founders, Arthur F. Tyde III, has brought
| Linuxcare back from the grave and made it
| ready for the 21st century.

| [...]
|
| In a statement, Dr. Scott S. Elliott,
| Linuxcare CEO, explained that since "Many
| companies are moving their IT to Cloud
| computing providers such as Amazon Web
| Services in order to reduce expenses for
| capital equipment, buildings, utilities,
| and supporting manpower." We have built
| Linuxcare in the Cloud to provide scalable
| services such as helping clients set-up,
| configure and debug their open-source
| applications, including Linux, Joomla,
| SugarCRM, and many others."

| In today's world of corporatized GNU/Linux and FOSS, it's easy to forget that
| Linux was originally "marketed" by decidedly non-mainstream people, many of
| whom are now ignored or forgotten.
