Hi Max and e-box customers,
May I know who and where saying that DMP/e-box recommends Voyage Linux
to their customer? I have sent a query to info at compactpc.com.tw and
here is my questions and their reply. (I removed info at compactpc.com.tw
from CC list)
My questions:
===================================
<snip>
1. Are you interested in working with open-source community?
2. Would you like to sponsor us some hardware to aid development of
Voyage Linux to get ebox 2300/3300 official support?
I am looking for your favourable reply.
===================================
And their response:
===================================
Thanks for the mail, actually we are the simply hardware manufacture focus
on hardware product sell, and for O/S that we provided standard service for
like Windows and regular Linux kernel, for special distribution like yours,
we prefer let interesting customer talk to you directly.
===================================
Regards,
Punky
