PSA Peugeot Citroën to deploy SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop

European car manufacturing giant PSA Peugeot Citroën has said that they are now going to deploy SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop on up to 20,000 computers in addition to 2,500 servers.

This could be the continent’s one of the largest ever such deployment of Linux based machines.

Interestingly, the deal was announced on the same day Microsoft launched their Vista operating system in around 70 nations around the world including in European countries.

Market analyst Charles King spoke about this deal: “The migration to Vista will require a significant hardware upgrade. The costs associated with this upgrade will open the door for companies to consider alternatives.”

He said that the value of this deal is significant and the timing interesting. Novell claimed that the support for SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop and the user-friendly design of the software were key factors in the selection process.
