Everex: The Dell of the Linux World
,----[ Quote ]
| Most people these days think of Everex as the company that’s looking to bring
| Linux-powered desktop PCs with their own brand of Linux to the masses. But
| did you know that in many ways, they are in a position to do what Dell should
| have done from day one into the Ubuntu deal? If Everex plays their cards
| right, they could quite literally take any Linux thunder away from Dell and
| really make a name for themselves in a relatively new market.

| Those are just the big success stories. You also have major retailers like
| Amazon, Best Buy and Sears now selling pre-installed Linux PCs. And, thanks
| to the Vista flop, Windows PC sales are actually declining.
