Commentary: VA bucking odds in hardware sales

From the Meta Group (on CNet): “Linux hardware seller VA Linux has an interesting strategy, and its
financial grounding in computer hardware sales makes it stand out
among the pure Linux companies.

Whether VA can actually fulfill CEO Larry
Augustin’s promise of profits by the end of calendar 2001, however, is
doubtful, even if the economy stays strong.” (Disclosure: VA Linux owns NewsForge.)
