SEATTLE, WA -- SSC Publications, publisher of the award-winning monthly magazine Linux Journal, is pleased to announce the launch of the on-line Linux Buyer's Guide: http://www.linuxjournal.com/bg.

The print edition of the Linux Buyer's Guide has always been a hit with Linux enthusiasts around the world, and this year we are excited to introduce the guide as an on-line resource. Free to all, this comprehensive directory of services and products will allow users to effortlessly search Linux-related products and companies.

Linux Journal Editor in Chief Richard Vernon commented, "With the ubiquity of Linux, the number of Linux-related products is growing exponentially and keeping track of them is certainly no easy task. The Linux Buyer's Guide brings together information on thousands of Linux-related products -- everything from server hardware to games. By switching our Buyer's Guide from a print to an on-line format, we can ensure the information is up-to-date and easily searchable."

Vendors and maintainers of free software wishing to list their products and services in the Linux Buyer's Guide can do so for free, and will now have the ability to update their listings as often as needed, with a minimum of once per calendar year to ensure accuracy.
