Monarch Announces New Ultimate Linux Box for the 2003 Model Year



Atlanta -- December 12, 2002 --Monarch Computer Systems of Tucker, GA today released the details of the 2003 model year Ultimate Linux Box line of workstations and servers. First conceived in 2001, the ULB line was born from a Linux Journal review naming a Monarch workstation the Ultimate Linux Box. Since that time Monarch has updated and expanded the line with new products and the line has been winning awards ever since. For 2003 Monarch updated the motherboard chipset, available CPU speeds, and introduced a 19" rack mountable version. Although these systems come with many Operating Systems optional, these systems are designed with Linux compatibility in mind.

The newest models use the brand new AMD Athlon(tm) MP processors 2400+ on the latest Tyan server board with onboard Adaptec Ultra-320 SCSI controller. These systems come standard with 1GB of PC2100 Registered ECC memory, a Seagate Cheetah ST336732LW/LC Ultra 320 15K/10K 36 GB SCSI hard drives, a 16X40 DVD drive and floppy. The system is available in the Lian-Li PC7323A aluminum tower or in the AIC RM2Q rack chassis, which fits in a 2U 19" rack bay. Both chassis come with 460-watt power supplies and the AIC 2U comes with six hot-swap SCA bays. With the AMD Athlon MP processors 2400+ these systems start at $2800.

"These systems have always been powerful; with the newest options they are more flexible than ever too," said Richard Harris, President of Monarch Computer Systems, "Now you can just hop on our website and in a few minutes you can design your own ultimate Linux server or workstation without fear of compatibility issues or problems."
