“The Franklin Institute Science Museum has chosen LinuxForce
to service and support several essential systems providing
educational programming.“
“The Franklin Institute Science Museum in Philadelphia has
contracted with LinuxForce.net to provide Internet solutions,
software solutions, custom programming, disaster planning and
recovery services, and general consulting services. The one year
contract involves services for 9 separate systems at the Institute.
LinuxForce will provide audits of the systems, immediate
remediation where needed and on-going systems administration
services. There is a full range of operating systems covered by the
contract. The predominant one is the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.
There are also SGI Challenge and Windows NT servers involved.”
“Charles B. Fleming President of LinuxForce said “It is
gratifying when a prestigious institution such as the Franklin
Institute exhibits increasing confidence in LinuxForce with each
project we complete. We will now be responsible for the maintenance
of computer systems that operate educational exhibits and programs
that are used and viewed by thousands of visitors each day of the
year.” Fleming added “The LinuxForce list of industrial and
commercial clients is now being expanded with the addition of
institutional and educational organizations. The reliability and
economy afforded by Linux is becoming broadly recognized in all
sectors that have mission critical computing requirements.”
