Business Editors & High-Tech Writers

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 19, 2001--Dell (Nasdaq:DELL) today announced that it will offer factory installation of Red Hat(R) Linux 7.2 on its entire line of Dell Precision(tm) workstations and Dell PowerEdge(tm) servers, including the PowerEdge 1500SC server, which was introduced today for small business customers.

Dell Precision workstations running Red Hat Linux are an ideal production and development platform offering the most popular desktop user interfaces, and development compilers and interpreters.

For customers who develop their own Linux image using Red Hat Linux 7.2 or another Linux distribution, Dell offers Custom Factory Integration to install the software on Dell OptiPlex(tm) desktop and Dell Latitude(tm) notebook computers.

Red Hat Linux 7.2 is immediately available on Dell PowerEdge servers and will be available on Dell Precision workstations later this year. For more information on Red Hat Linux on Dell systems, go to www.dell.com/linux. More information on Red Hat Linux can be found at www.redhat.com.
