direct sales The Walmart chain abandons Linux

The largest retailer in the world, Walmart has decided to discontinue direct sales of computers with the Linux operating system due to the reduced interest from consumers.

Ti Journal: A few months ago, Linux supporters celebrated the chain Walmart had decided to sell the public computers with Linux preinstalled. Within a few months in the supermarket Walmart, the company has decided to discontinue sales of the product. "Our customers simply have not shown interest," said Walmart spokeswoman Melissa O'Brien, the Associated Press. Walmart opted for a distributed computer Everex Taiwanese company in early October 2007. Although the devices were sold at only $ 199, the public interest has been minimal and does not justify continuing to offer the product. The decision to discontinue sales was a blow to Everex, which in turn characterizes successful sales. "We believe that this was a successful test, and Walmart's decision surprised us," said Paul Kim, who emphasized that Walmart sold almost all Linux computers in stock.
Walmart's decision applies only to direct sales in its stores. Internet sales continue to apply. Source: http://www.diarioti.com/gate/n.php?id=16892 More about computing in: http://juan-mendizabal.netfirms.com http://tus-links.com.ar/antivirus/
