			and Interoperate with Hundreds of Eclipse-based
Tools

    PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 9, 2004--TimeSys(R) Corporation, a
leader in embedded Linux(R) technologies and development tools, today
announced the immediate availability of the Eclipse 3.0-based
TimeStorm(R) Linux Development Suite (LDS) and TimeStorm Linux
Verification Suite (LVS), powerful development and testing tools that
support every step in the embedded development process. TimeStorm LDS
and LVS work with all embedded Linux distributions and the hundreds of
available plug-ins for the Eclipse 3.0 Framework, giving developers the
flexibility to create the development and testing environment of their
choice.

    Based on Eclipse 3.0 and CDT 2.0, TimeStorm LDS and LVS include an
Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and together support a complete
suite of features to streamline development and testing.
TimeStorm LDS enables developers to quickly develop embedded
applications or port any Linux distribution to any target platform.
TimeStorm LVS includes more than 2,200 ready-to-run system tests for all
Linux distributions and sophisticated testware for validating
applications and Linux distributions on embedded boards.

    "With the Eclipse 3.0-based TimeStorm LDS and LVS, TimeSys continues
to deliver solutions to accelerate the adoption of embedded Linux," said
TimeSys CEO Larry Weidman. "By supporting all Linux distributions and
tying in to leading third party tools, TimeStorm gives developers the
power to rapidly get embedded applications to market using the
development and testing environment best suited to their needs."
