VA Linux Systems (VA) wants to build a billion dollar company
selling Linux-based computers. And this past quarter, he got one
step closer to that target.

rocketed 220% over the previous quarter…”
“The company is estimated to have sold just under $100
million in workstations and servers in 1998, one-fifth of all
the new Linux-related hardware sold that year.”
