“Computer Associates International, Inc. (CA) continued to
extend its industry leadership in supporting the increasingly
popular open source operating system with a flurry of Linux-related
announcements at CA-World 1999.”

entered into strategic partnerships with major Linux distributors
— including Caldera, Red Hat, SuSE and TurboLinux…”
“CA has clearly embraced Linux as a corporate computing
platform and is providing customers with the tools they need
to effectively deploy Linux in the context of a well-managed
enterprise environment,” said Colin Mahony, an analyst at The
Yankee Group. “Vendor commitments like these will be critical in
determining the success of Linux within the enterprise.”
