[Posted May 3, 2007 by cook]

KPLC-TV reports on a commercial consortium that plans to promote Linux in Japan. "Major information technology firms, including Oracle Corp. (ORCL.O), IBM Corp. (IBM.N) and NEC Corp. (6701.T), will set up a consortium to sell servers and systems running the Linux operating system in Japan, a financial daily said on Thursday. It would be the first time in the world that major IT firms join hands to market equipment running the free software, the Nikkei newspaper said."
