  Interview: Dell eyes Linux future despite desktop retreat
Time: 14:00 EST/19:00 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Todd Richardson

A full day of interviews at Dell Computer's headquarters here is more than enough to get a firm grip on what executives hold as the key virtues of the company.

So, when IDG News Service last week sat down with Dell Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Michael Dell, it seemed appropriate to ask him about some of the not-so-mature markets Dell has pursued. In the case of the Linux desktop, Dell pulled back on large investments in 2001 as demand faltered, Dell said. But this failure has not stopped the company from attacking the nascent markets for HPCC (high-performance computing clusters) and for Linux clusters running Oracle database software. Dell painted a picture of where and when he draws the line on new ventures.
