“Corel and IBM are among the horde of firms expected to use next
week’s LinuxWorld Conference & Expo to launch or demonstrate
new products based on the popular open-source operating
system.”
“More than 12,000 developers, businesspeople, and other
enthusiasts attended the first LinuxWorld show in March, and
organizers hope to top that figure next week. The show runs Monday
through Thursday in San Jose, California. Linus Torvalds, creator
of Linux, will deliver a keynote Tuesday evening.”
“Among product rollouts, Corel on Tuesday will provide the first
peek at a beta version of its desktop Linux release that it hopes
to release commercially by the end of the year.”
