“Enhanced Software Technologies, Inc. (EST) the developer of the
#1 award-winning BRU(TM) Backup & Restore Utility for Linux
systems today announced the release of BRU 15.1.”

“The most significant enhancement to BRU 15.1 is the release of
CRU (Crash Recovery Utility) for Linux under an open source
license.”

“‘Our approach with CRU for Linux is yet another proof-point of
EST’s commitment to the Linux marketplace,’ said Ted Cook,
President and CEO. ‘We placed focus on the Linux operating system
in 1994, and our BRU product set was the first-to-market commercial
Backup & Restore Utility supporting Linux systems. The
marketplace has embraced BRU, and we most appreciate that
acceptance. Providing CRU for Linux under open source is one of the
ways we give back to the community.'”
