Concern is mounting over the future of integrator and PC builder Elonex as it emerges Computer 2000 (C2000) has filed a winding-up petition against the company.

CRN had it confirmed from the Royal Courts of Justice that the petition was filed on 18 May and is due to be heard in Leeds on 4 July.

Steve Lockie, managing director of C2000, said: "We cannot comment on individual cases."

Another distributor, which asked to remain anonymous, said: "There are a few people out there that haven't been paid. I'd imagine the signs are not looking very good."

Elonex was unavailble for comment.
