CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 13, 1999--GraphOn
Corporation (www.graphon.com) (OTC BB:GOJO), a leading provider of
thin, server-based connectivity software, was named one of the best
companies distributing communications products for Linux by attendees
at this week's LinuxWorld Conference & Expo trade show.
Attendees cast their ballots using web-based kiosks on the show
floor to select their favorites in various categories.
GraphOn's thin, server-based software products, GO-Joe(tm),
GO-Global(tm), and GO-Between(tm) deliver business-critical UNIX(R)
and Linux applications over the Internet and dial-up connections
unchanged to PCs , Java-enabled devices and browsers, and
Windows-based Terminals.
Utilizing GraphOn's thin wire RapidX protocol, application
processing is done on the server, graphics are displayed at the
desktop, and only a tiny applet or native Windows client less than
100k is required on the desktop.
"Being named a show favorite is a tremendous honor," said Dean
Prelazzi, Director of Strategic Marketing at GraphOn. "LinuxWorld
attendees are the most knowledgeable about the best Linux products on
the market, and we were delighted that they recognize our
revolutionary web-enabling technology for delivering Linux
applications to any desktop," said Prelazzi.
The Show Favorites awards were sponsored by LinuxWorld magazine.
Nick Petreley, editorial director for the magazine presented plaques
to representatives of the winning companies. Petreley said the purpose
of the awards is to draw attention to the best Linux distributors and
for-Linux programs available.
Earlier this week GraphOn entered into an agreement with AVCOM
Technologies, Inc., one of Sun Microsystems' largest U.S. VARs, to
license GraphOn's web-enabling software as an essential element of
MyIntranet(SM), part of AVCOM's comprehensive Applications Service
Provider (ASP) service and portal, WebHarbor.com. The company also has
strategic partnerships with International Business Machines, Sun
Microsystems, Corel Corporation and other companies.
