  This document contains a listing of service companies which do not
  manufacture hardware or create packaged software, but add value to
  existing products.  It is maintained by Martin Michlmayr

  1.  About this document

  This is the Linux VAR HOWTO.  It contains a listing of service
  companies which do not manufacture hardware or create packaged
  software, but add value to existing products.  This added value can
  take many forms, such as installation of Linux on computer hardware,
  configuration, or custom applications.  However, at the moment the
  Linux VAR HOWTO only contains companies selling preconfigured hardware
  for the purpose of running Linux.  Companies offering other services
  are invited to contact the maintainer Martin Michlmayr at
  <tbm@cyrius.com> for a listing.

  If you contact any companies listed in this document, please mention
  the Linux VAR HOWTO.

  If you need to know more about the Linux Documentation Project or
  about Linux HOWTO's, feel free to contact the supervisor Greg Hankins
  <gregh@sunsite.unc.edu>.

  Greg Hankins will post the listing to several national and
  international newsgroups on a monthly basis.  In addition, the Linux
  VAR HOWTO can be found on the World Wide Web at http://var.cyrius.com.
  New versions of the Linux VAR HOWTO are always placed at this site
  first, so please be sure to check if the copy you are reading is still
  up to date!

  Companies selling hardware for the purpose of running Linux are
  invited to fill out the following form and contact me at
  tbm@cyrius.com.  Companies offering other services should contact me
  so a more appropriate template can be worked out.
