CLEVELAND, Dec. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyLink(SM) Systems, a Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. company (Nasdaq: PIOS - news), today announced it has signed an agreement and will become one of the first value-added distributors to offer the Red Hat (Nasdaq: RHAT - news) Linux operating system. Red Hat is looking to expand its customer base to include both small- to medium-sized and enterprise businesses, and KeyLink Systems offers a substantial North American customer base to fulfill Red Hat's needs.
Major vendors, such as Compaq Computer Corporation, IBM, Intel and Oracle, have endorsed the open-source operating system offered by Red Hat. Compaq's AlphaServer and IBM's Netfinity line of servers are Linux-ready, meaning a value-added distribution partner like KeyLink Systems can offer complete solutions to its more than 4,500 reseller partners.
"KeyLink Systems is focused on offering value-added services to its customers and this is evident in Red Hat's decision to make us one of the first direct distributors of its Linux operating system," said Bob Bailey, senior vice president, Pioneer's Computer Systems Division. "We're investing in our relationship with Red Hat by bolstering our technical support staff, integration capabilities, and sales focus to accommodate the anticipated demand." |
