VARs pump up their core strengths with competitive solutions

So what on earth is going on with Compaq? Last issue, we reported the company is moving into industrial distribution with its workstations. In this issue, we describe another bold move in our Networking section (page 57). Compaq is moving into the networking market in a big way.

Of course, that's not the only hot topic in technology. We found VARs
in the business of developing custom applications for various customers
that discovered how to leverage their core strengths to move into new
business areas without sacrificing their primary tasks. It's something
like discovering found money, as Application Development (page 65)
explains.

And the Internet isn't letting any grass grow under its feet either.
There's been lots of noise to date about the network computer, in one
form or another. In Internet/Intranet (page 75), we examine whether this
is the time that VARs should get into the NC business, or whether they
should, ahem, await further developments.
