| HP ships business PCs preloaded with Linux |
|---|
Hewlett-Packard has released business desktop PCs running Mandrake Linux. Neither of HP's big competitors - Dell and IBM - have similar offerings, although IBM is one of Linux's biggest advocates.
"Over the last few months, a number of companies such as HP, who have been publicly lukewarm over desktop Linux have suddenly had their interest piqued considerably - particularly overseas," said Illuminata senior analyst Gordon Haff.
