“TradeMark Computers, a division of distributor Bell
Microproducts, plans to buildUltraSPARC processor-powered Linux
systems for OEMs, VARs, and integrators.”
” ‘The Linux operating system is ideal for such applications as
Web and DNS servers — it delivers all the performance and
stability needed to handle the job cost-effectively,’ said Dave
Guzzi, vice president and general manager of TradeMark Computers.
‘Linux offers a business model that is being warmly adopted by
universities, R&D centers, and service providers seeking to
enter the market.’ “
“The Linux-based servers are powered by Sun’s UltraSPARC IIi
processors on Ultra AXi motherboards, and allow for all levels of
configuration from Bell Microproducts’ San Jose-based TradeMark
division… The TradeMark servers include Sun-approved components,
including options for 270-MHz and 360-MHz CPUs. A 440-MHz processor
will ship soon…”
