“Germany-based software firm SuSE is setting up base here and is
carrying out market research for the scope of its alternative
computing system — Linux — that threatens to end the monopoly of
Microsoft’s Windows operating system.”
“SuSE’s London-based commercial director Jasmin Ul-Haque said,
“Linux was launched in 1991. SuSE was created in 1992. We’re older
than Red Hat (another popular Linux distribution, which has a large
market in India). And recent IDC figures say ours is the leading
Linux distribution in Europe.”
“SuSE is keen to get a greater market share in India and is
looking for partners across the country. “We have just started out
here. SuSE believes Linux can play a vital role in just about any
company. We are trying to target the educational market, from
universities to schools,” she told IANS.”
