“Leading the drive for Open Source solutions for network-enabled
devices,NetSilicon, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSIL), the leader in Ethernet
microprocessing solutions, announced today the availability of
NET+Lx, the first complete environment for building embedded Linux
applications. NET+Lx is the first product from the recently
announced partnership between NetSilicon and Red Hat (Nasdaq:
RHAT), the leader in Linux-based Internet infrastructure

“Just as NetSilicon was at the forefront in providing
royalty-free embedded systems, we are once again leading the way by
offering Open Source-based embedded solutions to an industry
clamoring for more product development options,” said Dick
Andersen, vice president, product marketing and engineering,
NetSilicon, Inc. “Some companies offer software-only Linux
solutions. Others offer loosely coupled hardware solutions. What
the market really needs–and NET+Lx delivers–is a seamlessly
integrated hardware/ software platform that substantially reduces
development time and risk for the growing wave of networked
devices.”

availability of Linux in a highly integrated hardware/software
