"Tripp Lite, a leading manufacturer of power protection products, has established another milestone in its support for the Linux development community. Tripp Lite's UPS line and PowerAlert UPS Management Software has been tested and certified by TurboLinux to install and run flawlessly using TurboLinux version 6.0 for both workstations and servers."

"Receiving TurboLinux certification capped a thorough testing process which proved that both TurboLinux and Tripp Lite are dedicated to providing Linux users with the most comprehensive power protection solutions available," said Mike DelGrosso, Tripp Lite's Director of Software Development."

"Tripp Lite leads the power protection industry with its long history of commitment to the Linux platform. Tripp Lite established itself in the Linux community when it first provided PowerAlert Software for Linux in April, 1998. A year later, Tripp Lite broke new ground as the first UPS software manufacturer to grant Linux developers a General Public License to modify its original source code for private applications. And in April 2000, Tripp Lite furthered its support of Linux with the testing and approval of PowerAlert Software to run on TurboLinux platforms."
