“Microsoft arch-rival Sun Microsystems Inc next week plans to announce its first fully fledged commitment to Linux on desktop PCs. The computer maker, whose server business has been hurt by low-end systems running Microsoft Windows, is determined to counterattack by cutting into Microsoft’s franchise in desktop-PC software.
Others backing the push, to varying degrees, include Linux specialists Red Hat Inc, SuSE Linux AG, Ximian Inc, and Lindows.com.”
