“Donovan Systems today introduced an expanded and enhanced
family of Penguin64, the world’s first 64-bit Linux server
introduced in March 1999, with ‘bigger, better, faster’ models
starting at just $2,599. Up to 70 percent faster and 15% less
expensive and more memory than current model, the two new, 64-bit
UltraSPARC-driven Linux servers deliver superior price/performance
for entry-level and mid-range server.”
“With today’s introduction, Donovan has again raised the bar for
features and functionality in 64-bit Linux servers, without
increasing the price. Like their predecessors, the new
Penguin64/360 and Penguin64/440 models match PC-level prices yet
deliver more features, greater performance, and added flexibility
for demanding technical computing applications. In all models,
faster processors, larger external cache, more memory, and faster,
bigger hard drives generate the power required by users in
educationals, web-hosting, digital content creation, and other
technical markets.”
“With the highly reliable RedHat(tm) 6.0 64-bit Linux operating
environment pre-installed, the new Penguin64 servers provide
increased capacity to accommodate large file systems and manipulate
very large data sets, with complete 100 percent binary
compatibility between 32- and 64-bit environments.”
