Arete Systems Corp, San Jose, has picked picturesque Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire for its UK base as part of a necessary effort to reduce its dependence on OEM sales to Unisys Corp, which is looking in danger of severe overcrowding at the top end of its combined Sperry/Burroughs Unix line. Heading the UK team will be David Bethel, formerly of Zilog Systems, and the company is also reportedly looking for an office on the continent. In the US, Arete has appointed Mike Lambert from Convergent Technologies as new vice president of marketing, and has recently signed 12 new value-added resellers in its efforts to open up distribution channels. US direct sales staff are also being doubled to 30.
