Xandros Rolls Out Premium Memberships for Xandros Networks to
Strengthen Core Community
NEW YORK, NY 06/10/2004 Xandros, the leading developer of easy-to-use
Linux solutions, today announced the availability of premium memberships to
the Xandros Networks single-click update service and community
store. Registered users of the Xandros Desktop Operating System (OS)
automatically obtain a free Basic Membership to Xandros Networks, to
receive free fixes and patches for their version of Xandros Desktop OS. The
new Premium Membership offers instant access to the latest desktop Linux
features and enhancements and guaranteed top discounts on version upgrades
and third-party products and services. The Linux enthusiasts can even
participate in development decisions.
What youre seeing is another element of our business model, said Dr.
Frederick H. Berenstein, Xandros Chairman and CTO. Just as our Open
Circulation Edition is vastly expanding our user base, Premium
Memberships to Xandros Networks will strengthen our core community and
provide a more continuous revenue stream.
People like to talk about kernel numbers and version upgrades, adds
Ming Poon, Xandros VP for software development, but our desktop OS is
improving all the time. Premium Members can now experience many new
desktop features and application updates the minute they pass Xandros
Quality Assurance. We also set up a special forum where Premium Members
discuss future directions and in some cases vote on which features we
should work on next.
For an introductory annual membership fee of $39US, Premium Members
further:
* Propose new features
* Vote on what applications should appear in Xandros Networks
* Receive instant access to Xandros Desktop OS enhancements
* Get guaranteed top discounts on version upgrades and all other
products and services
