“Red Hat is shipping Metro Link Motif 2.1 as part of their Linux
Enterprise Edition. This Edition is a collaborative effort between
Red Hat and industry-leading application providers designed to
deliver optimized solutions for corporations migrating to Linux.
This is Red Hat’s most fully featured Linux package and is one of
several products in which Red Hat has bundled Metro Link software
since 1994.”
“It’s the well-known reliability of Metro Link Motif that makes
it such a good fit for the Enterprise Edition,” said Morgan Von
Essen, President and CEO of Metro Link. “The Motif GUI has been
widely used on many platforms for many years. Therefore, having
Motif in the Enterprise package is essential for developers to make
a smooth transition to Linux. With access to Metro Link’s robust
implementation of Motif, they can port their existing applications
to Linux and create new applications quickly and easily.”
“Metro Link Motif is known for its stability and reliability. It
was the first commercial product sold for Linux and continues to be
an industry standard. Metro Link Motif has been certified by one of
the most popular database vendors as the most stable supported
graphical interface available.”
