Linux Ubuntu PCs set for sale in Russia
Linux Ubuntu installation on PCs sold by Excimer and NT Computer is to be launched within the nearest month. Consequently, Ubuntu sales in Russia might reach 300 thousand units. Ubuntu 8.04 released on April 24, 2008 is more likely to be preinstalled.
Within a month several Russian companies start installing popular Linux Ubuntu OS on PCs sold, tells Vladimir Kryukov, Canonical representative in EMEA.
A little bit less than 50 thousand computers with Ubuntu preinstalled were sold in Russia over the recent year. According to Mr. Kryukov’s optimistic forecasts the given number might expand to 300 thousand by the end of 2008.
Ubuntu – a free, Debian derived Linux-based operating system – has become one of the most popular Linux distributives recently.
