Wal-Mart Ends Test of Linux in Stores (Associated Press)
March 13, 2008 (Thursday) | Linux
This press release has some mixed messages. On the one hand: "Computers that run the Linux operating system instead of Microsoft Corp.'s Windows didn't attract enough attention from Wal-Mart customers, and the chain has stopped selling them in stores, a spokeswoman said Monday." But this report goes on to say that "Walmart.com now carries an updated version, the gPC2, also for $199, without a monitor. The site also sells a tiny Linux-driven laptop, the Everex CloudBook, for $399."
