“Red Hat software Inc. is discussing an expanded marketing
arrangement with Ingram Micro Inc., which could push Linux deeper
into the reseller channel.”
“The two-month-old retail pact, meanwhile, has boosted Red Hat’s
desktop sales, according to Young. “Our sales volumes have more
than doubled in the past 60 days … as a result of Ingram Micro,”
says Young, who also hints that Red Hat is in discussions with
distributor Tech Data Corp.”
