“Siemens Computer Systems is aggressively expanding its business
strategy for Linux, and is now offering customers the Open Source
Operating System directly as a component part of the Siemens
product range. Siemens Computer Systems’ Competence Centres will
support users by providing Professional Services expertise and
maintenance and training support for integrating Linux in their IT
solutions.”

“In certifying servers and clients, Siemens works very closely
with SuSE, the leading European systems house for Linux. SuSE also
offers its own Linux support for Siemens Celsius workstations and
Primergy servers, and announced this cooperation with Siemens at
CeBIT 99.”
