"Linux's continuing growth in the Asian market has prompted Rackspace.com, a Linux-based Internet hosting services provider, to open an office in Hong Kong and name a new director of Asian operations. This move represents the latest in a series of cooperative efforts between Linux companies and the Asian marketplace."

"The company cited heavy growth in the Asian marketplace as the reason for this move. "This is a time of burgeoning growth in Internet infrastructure, offering significant opportunities for us in the Asian market," said Graham Weston, chief executive officer of Rackspace.com."

"The Asian office is a natural step in Rackspace.com's expansion outside the U.S. and London, where it established an office in January of this year."
