Three desktop Linux companies are partnering to offer a
hardware/software approach that aims to enable organizations large and
small to cost-effectively leverage the Linux desktop. The marketing
collaboration results in "a complete pathway to migrate enterprises to
desktop Linux, a feat no single company has yet matched," the companies
said in a joint statement.
The three companies' contributions to the joint marketing effort include:
Userful's Desktop Multiplier software, said to turn one computer
into 10 using additional video cards, thereby enabling organizations to
deploy Linux desktops to realize TCO savings by maintaining fewer computers.
Alacos's Desktop Migration Agent software, said to enable
organizations to transfer settings and application data from Windows
desktops to Linux in order to minimize employee downtime during migrations.
Win4Lin Inc's Win4Lin, said to enable users to seamlessly use
Windows applications in Linux desktop environments, the company said.
These environments include Userful's Desktop Multiplier, Desktop Server,
and DiscoverStation.
The three companies are now cooperatively offering their combined
software through both retail and partner channels. They will demonstrate
the products, combined and individually, at LinuxWorld San Francisco
2005 Exhibit Hall Booth #138 from Aug. 9-11.
