[Gllug] Sage and IBM

[Xander D Harkness]

I emailed SAGE following the press release on Linux Today that IBM and
Sage were going to start offering SMEs Linux servers.  

So I asked - and I think that Sage is one of the core companies for
Linux acceptance within the business environment (I would consider the
other people like Adobe, Quark etc. some of the others)

Anyway I thought it exciting news. :-)

Kind regards
Xander

Hi Xander,

Regarding your message.. Sage will be porting the Sage Line 500 product to
Linux. This should be completed in about 3 months. We are working very
closely with IBM and will putting marketing materials together in due
course.

Do you represent a company that has a requirement for an ERP system ?

Regards,

Bill
