(2005-03-24 09:01:59, 582p) By rafting U.S. Eastern Time on March 24 (March 24 2130), Novell is fierce competition in the United States market with the red hat of Linux software provider company that started last year, the company stepped up cooperation with IBM, Dell, Hewlett-Packard and other manufacturers of IT cooperation Suse Linux software, which it expects to use not only in the U.S. market in 1965 and has gained a foothold in the international market. However, the company CEO Jack-door Christman clear that while China is the world's fastest growing and largest market in the world, Novell has not yet considered entering the China market. Local time Tuesday (2130 Wednesday) opened the door Christman accepted the news in an interview with reporters, to elaborate his views on the Chinese market and the label, and explained the importance of Linux desktop software for Novell. Opened Reporter : Are you willing to reveal information center is Novell's international Linux strategy. Suse software in the European market to ensure that other countries and regions in the focus of your company? Gate Christman : label in the United States seven years earlier than we do, but I think we have to catch up. "Rome was not built in one day", we have all the major OEM manufacturers and established a good relationship of cooperation, they are Suse Linux software sales. We certainly are superior software. I think all of the major OEM and independent hardware providers and independent software providers, there are two competing companies is they want to see. I do not think that they only hope that the existence of a Linux company, because they do not want to create a Microsoft. I do not think they want three companies survived because they had shifted to another company. Is the best of the two companies, through their control over the distribution of its business. Reporter : Does your company opened information centers in the United States market are targeted at specific objectives? Christman doors : American market booming, it is difficult to control segments of the market. We have seen an increase in the number of independent software providers, software products is also growing, potential customers are constantly increased. We believe Microsoft will release longer operating system software is a watershed in the field, when users choose to use either the Microsoft operating system longer, or switch to Linux, and we think users to use Linux operating system more convenient than longer. Reporter : people talk about the press center opened at the Linux operating system to "take off" for several years, your company for investment in Linux, so what do you think Linux will be accepted more than five years ago? Gate Christman : I think you need a complete solution, Microsoft now we can try, because they are dominant in the server and desktop market, we have a competitive edge over their prices. We will not let this situation has been maintained. Our customers tell me that they hope we will intervene in the server and desktop markets. Perhaps no excessive gains in the desktop, but our channel can make huge profits through the installation of the desktop. Reporter : In addition to the U.S. market opened information centers, which Novell will forcefully enter the market? Gate Christman : We are mainly in Brazil and India under a lot of the market, I did not say that the Chinese market. Reporter : Why not press center opened at the China market? Christman : doors in the industry said that because China did not resolve the issue of intellectual property rights, China's market is not profitable opportunities in the near future. When I told our partners we would like to invest in China, they do not want to develop the Chinese version of the Linux solution. I once a friend of China, said that in China, we can use the Suse Linux Zhenzhuang packaging, it can Asianix or as a means to sell software, they do not need a complex system of the software. Currently, we do not see China's government-owned companies and commercial companies take major action against piracy Linux. Reporter : What did your company opened information centers on how to enter the Chinese market? Gate Christman : I may go to Beijing in May this year, I have to assess the situation on the Chinese market, I must be sure that we are not dollar in China, because China does not attach much importance to the protection of intellectual property. Novell chairman : China piracy seriously considering entering the short-term Garbage, Linux is to increase revenue, and you have to charge fees alone received technical support, others are veterans RedHat Linux is a free free speech, free communication! No wonder Novell will be the most successful when the MS fought a GAMEOVER! [ Closed window ]
