“Sm@rt Reseller has learned that The Nic Co. plans to ship
several thousand Internet computers in the coming weeks, despite
having no office space and only a handful of employees.”
” ‘[The Nic Co.] will be giving away several thousand units
to K-12 schools across the country … probably by the end of the
quarter,’ says a source close to The Nic Co.”
“The Intel-powered Net computers will run the Linux operating
system and come packaged with Netscape Navigator and a CD-ROM
drive.”
