Red Hat delays new software for PCs until January
Red Hat Inc has postponed until January the launch of a new Linux software product for personal computers that would directly compete with Microsoft Corp's Windows operating system.
Introduction of the software, which would also compete with Novell Inc's (NOVL.O) Suse Linux software and would initially be sold in developing countries, had previously been delayed twice.
Late on Monday, spokeswoman Leigh Day said the company planned to release the software in January, five months after the original target date of August that it had promised customers.
She said Red Hat was postponing the product's release again because it has yet to resolve problems getting the right to distribute software for playing music and viewing videos with the Linux software.
