Philadelphia, PA— May 8, 2000—
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."
