Affordy Information

Affordy developed TITAN LEV (Linux Extended Version) - a breakthrough Linux distribution designed for users with Windows experience, combining the best of both Linux and Windows. It provides the most comprehensive solution for users looking for a Windows style experience on low-cost hardware such as Netbooks with no hardware restrictions. TITAN LEV enables PC manufacturers, OEM’s and vendors to be more competitive in the Netbooks market. Currently, the cost of Windows 7 increases the Cost of Goods (COG) for a typical Netbook by 20-30%. Using TITAN LEV this cost will be saved and it will dramatically improve profits in this market. To ensure acceptance of this alternative, TITAN LEV provides a total package that includes an operating system bundled with a suite of 150 applications for personal, home and business use. It requires less CPU and memory resources than Windows, looks like Windows, runs Windows applications, provides migration tools from Windows and is fully supported. Affordy supplies TITAN LEV to hardware manufacturers and PC vendors that pre-install it, using private label, as their Linux operating system for their price sensitive customers. This enables them to increase their market share by providing these customers with a superior solution that is applications rich, economical, Windows compatible and easy to use. Affordy is also selling TITAN desktops, laptops and Netbooks with TITAN LEV pre-installed. This hardware-software system gives the user a total solution with great emphasis on Windows compatibility. Due to the low memory and CPU power consumption, it was possible to use components that are less expensive than those required by Windows and yet achieve better performance. The customer, who buys a TITAN computer with TITAN LEV pre-installed, gets a computer designed for his needs with all the programs pre-installed, working smoothly right out of the box at a price that is about 20% less than a comparable Windows solution.
