Turbolinux 7 for Intel Itanium-Based SystemsSan Fransisco 30 May 2001 Turbolinux announced the release of the Turbolinux Operating System 7 for the 64-bit Intel Itanium architecture.
Combining Turbolinux and the Itanium-based platform, this solution offers large processing capabilities and increased computing functionality.
Targeted toward high-end server and workstation customers, the release version
of Turbolinux OS 7 for the Itanium Architecture will be available as the system
in conjunction with the Itanium-based machines.
The combination of the new Linux 2.4 kernel combined with Intel's new hardware
will push Linux into the multiprocessor, 64-bit enterprise space. Examples of
64-bit processing power include increasing the number of transactions processed
per second on database servers and speeding up secure e-commerce transactions.
The availability of Linux commodity applications will speed the adoptions of the

millennium.
