Winning the LinuxWorld Boston Product Excellence award for Best Integration Solution in April before it was officially launched, the Xandros Server has been met with an overwhelming and exciting response from end-users, businesses, partners and the media.

The Xandros server integrates 21 powerful Linux services, BRU enterprise backup and recovery (6 included licences, a $900 value), Scalix e-mail and groupware (5 included licences, a $300 value), and Helix streaming media server into the Xandros Management Console.
