Lindist Brings Xandros’ Pioneering Easy-to-Use Software to Nordic Region
NEW YORK, NY and Stockholm, Sweden – Xandros, the leading provider of easy-to-use Linux alternatives to Windows desktop and server products, today announced that it has teamed up with Lindist AB, the leading Linux distributor of the Scandinavian countries, to deliver Xandros’ line of Linux desktop and server solutions to major resellers, system integrators and retail channels. The partnership with Lindist emphasizes Xandros strong interest in the Nordic region and the growing software markets in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland.
"The new Xandros desktop and server software deliver the benefits of Linux to broad new categories of users in the Nordic region," said Lindist Product Manager Daniel Osser. "While we have a proud tradition of software independence, not everyone in our part of the world is a software geek. The easy-to-use Windows alternatives from Xandros offer a secure web browsing and e-mail experience to millions of home users, and the easy to administer server solutions make Linux accessible to countless small to medium sized businesses that can’t afford to hire expensive technical consultants. The added licensing and hardware migration burdens of Windows Vista will cause many to take a fresh look at Linux, and the highly compatible Xandros products are perfectly positioned to satisfy the burgeoning demand."
"As the leading distributor of Linux solutions to the region, Lindist is the ideal partner for introducing our easy-to-use Xandros desktop software, as well as our next generation Xandros Server with automated workflow and all-graphical centralized administration," said Andreas Typaldos, Xandros CEO. "The countries Lindist serves represent a sophisticated market that is already migrating to open solutions and we’re happy to give the process a boost. We know that computer users in the Scandinavian countries are particularly interested in looking for viable alternatives to Microsoft products, and we are able to deliver."
Xandros provides a full line of easy-to-use desktop operating systems that work right out of the box and offer unrivaled ease-of-use and compatibility with Microsoft Windows. Xandros Desktop OS assures rock-solid stability and security, along with the freedom that an open environment provides.
Xandros recently launched the first Linux server to provide a powerful platform for enterprise administrators and SMBs with little or no Linux experience. The award- winning Xandros Server complements the company’s award-winning desktop, software deployment, and management software to complete a full end-to-end product line.
