(OPENOSX-INC)--OpenOSX Ships XFree 1.1 CD
Business Editors/High-Tech Writers

SWALL MEADOWS, Calif.--March 5th, 2002—OpenOSX, Inc., a leading provider of easy to-use, world-class open-source software, today began shipping their XFree 1.1 CD which delivers true compatibility with the X-Window library to the Mac OS 10.1.x desktop.

Without typing a single "UNIX" command, the OpenOSX CD will install XFree 4.2.0 and Xdarwin 1.1 configured with the OroborOSX window manager in less then 5 minutes by simply double-clicking the OpenOSX package icon.

XFree is a native implementation of the X-Window library that is the "UNIX" standard for graphical user interfaces. There are thousands of existing open source and commercial Applications that utilize X-Windows that may be used after installation.

OroborOSX and XDarwin interleave the X-Window environment seamlessly into the Mac OS X Aqua environment (digital screen images are available electronically at: <http://OpenOSX.com/xfree86/screenshots.html>)

The OpenOSX Xfree CD offers nearly identical functionality as Tenon's product Xtools for a small fraction of the cost.

Installation technical support for one seat and de-installation software is included with the CD.

The OpenOSX CD is shipping immediately for $30 with 6-month, upgrade-free CD subscriptions for $80. More information about the OpenOSX XFree 1.1 CD is available at: <http://OpenOSX.com/xfree86/>.

OpenOSX, Inc. is a company dedicated to serving the Macintosh community. As a previous professional system administrator, the founder of OpenOSX realizes that many computer users loathe the "Unix" command-line and OpenOSX is committed to bringing popular Unix software to the "Unix-challenged" and seasoned system administrators alike.
