VA Linux adds major customers
Posted by: J0rdan on: 03/29/2000 11:52 PM [ Print | 6 comment(s) ]
News.com is reporting that VA Linux, Providers of complete Linux solutions (hardware, software, and support), have signed on two new customers that will buy hundreds of its servers. Why is this important?
The deals highlight one area where Linux is gaining a foothold: large number of slim servers stacked in racks, attached to the Internet and often connected to a more powerful back-end system. Linux in this area costs less than proprietary Unix or Windows systems, particularly when coupled with comparatively inexpensive Intel-based hardware, advocates say.Ooooh yeah, look out world, Linux is coming through! :-) You can check out the rest of the story here.

![]() The Register has posted a review of IBM's Thinkpad T42p. The T42p sports ATI's Mobility Fire GL T2 workstation graphics chip. What sets a workstation chip apart from standard graphics chips is its certification for use with certain high-end graphical design packages. So if you want a notebook to run a CAD package, or a 3D rendering application, you'll want one that has a graphics chip approved by the software vendor.

You might want to take a look. |

![]() The guys over at SFFTech have posted a review of Iwill's ZMAXdp SFF. If I'm not mistaken, Hooz is running one of these units in the secret 2CPU.com underground test bunker. After previewing two "engineering samples" and now reviewing the final shipping product, we can confidently say that the ZMAXdp continues to amaze us. As you |
