LinuxCertified Announces Debian Certified Laptop

San Jose, Calif - December 18, 2003 - LinuxCertified, Inc. announced the
release of its first Debian Certified Laptop today. The LC2430 model was
added to the successful line of LC2000 series laptops, with pre-configured
Debian GNU/Linux. Other LC2000 models will soon be certified with Debian as
well. The laptop has gone through a rigorous certification process at
LinuxCertified labs and has also successfully passed beta tests by end
users.

"I am delighted that LinuxCertified is offering a laptop with Debian
pre-installed," said Martin
Michlmayr, Leader of the Debian Project. "Many of our users seek hardware
which is officially certified and supported to work with Debian, and
unfortunately there's a shortage of well-supported Linux laptops in
general."

LC2430 is a Linux powerhouse, which replaces UNIX workstations, providing a
cost-effective and mobile solution for developers, researchers and analysts.
There is no compromise in the performance and features, including big
high-resolution screen, fastest processor and big memory, while maintaining
the best price available in the market - making LC2430 the best Linux laptop
available today. A full array of drives and ports, makes it the ultimate
UNIX workstation replacement.

"The addition of Debian-based laptops in our product mix is one of our most
significant achievements this year," said Chander Kant, President of
LinuxCertified. "These laptops represent one of the best Linux distributions
running on state-of-the-art hardware, providing a potent solution for the
most demanding users".
