GTSI and Red Hat announcement . . . CHANTILLY, Va., Jan 12, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Government Technology Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: GTSI) today announced that the Company and Red Hat Inc. are in the final stages of negotiating a formal relationship between the two companies permitting GTSI to sell Red Hat's Linux operating system to the federal government. In addition to the operating system, GTSI also intends to offer the government a full range of support services. As proof of a growing demand for Linux in the federal arena, GTSI pointed to third quarter 1999 revenue of approximately $2 million in sales of Linux products and related hardware and services. The Company plans to add Linux products and services to at least two of the GWAC (Government Wide Acquisition Contracts) contracts it holds -- NIH ECS-2 (National Institutes of Health -- Electronic Computer Store) and NASA's SEWP-2 (Scientific and Engineering Workstation Procurement).
