Global Notebook Provider to Display Powerful, Secure LindowsOS Laptops
SAN DIEGO and WASHINGTON, March 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Twinhead, the
global notebook PC specialist, will be displaying laptop models pre-loaded
with LindowsOS at FOSE, the Federal Office Systems Exposition. An event
catering to the needs of government buyers, FOSE takes place on March 23-25 in
Washington, D.C. and is the premier event for representatives from the U.S.
government, the largest buyer of I.T. Technology in the world. Twinhead will
be located in booth 3549.
"Government entities are looking for the same computer features as
consumers -- security, affordability, and ease-of-use," said Michael
Robertson, chief executive officer of Lindows, Inc. "Desktop Linux technology
has made incredible strides over the last two years and is well suited for the
government deployment which is happening around the world."
Twinhead will be displaying a laptop pre-loaded with LindowsOS Laptop
Edition, the only Linux-based operating system specifically tailored for
laptop computers. The operating system features improved power management,
compatibility with WiFi cards, and the ability to take advantage of keyboard
shortcut keys. The laptop, model 23PA, emphasizes powerful computing and
full-featured communications options in a sleek case, designed to be the ideal
computer for a mobile lifestyle.
Desktop Linux has been gaining market share in consumer markets, leading
to increased government demand for the affordability and power of open-source
computing solutions. Approximately 250 separate U.S. government uses of
open-source computer systems and tools are currently documented, including
running on Air Force computers, Marine Corps systems, and in the Naval
Research Laboratory. Linux-based systems and clusters are also in use at the
Department of Defense, Agriculture and Energy Departments, and the Federal
Aviation Administration.
