“Linux Stock News is pleased to present an interview with Mr.
Bernie Thompson, President of VistaSource, Inc. (private), a newly
formed subsidiary of Applix, Inc. (NASD: APLX). In addition, a
feature story on Linux Security, Week in Review and Rants and Raves
(featuring the proposed Lineo IPO and the termination of the
Linux/Inprise merger) are also provided.”

“This week Linux Stock News looks at the trouble at Corel (NASD:
CORL), new tools from Oracle (NASD: ORCL), free Sair (subsidiary of
Thomson, TSE: TOC) Linux `boot camps’, the Lineo (private) IPO and
more….”

It’s a mixed news week. The good news is that Lineo
(private, proposed symbol NASD: LNEO), the Linux embedded system
company, has filed its Form S-1 with the SEC, which means an IPO
should only be a few months away.
The mixed news is that the
Corel (NASD: CORL) / Inprise (NASD: INPR) merger was officially
called off and analysts continue to lambaste Corel for its cash
flow difficulties…”
