paring down Sequent |

IBM is building up its Linux development lab
near the heart of the Oregon "Silicon Forest" after it bought the largest home-grown computer company in the state and pared it down to almost nothing.
Beaverton [Oregon] has become the place where there's more going on with Linux than anywhere else," said Daniel Frye, director of the IBM's newly formed Linux Technology Center in Beaverton.
Frye said IBM has more than 100 openings in Beaverton and is bringing in IBM staffers from around the country. While employment at the campus
is still 20 percent lower than when IBM took over, Frye stressed that the Linux operation is growing.
