The Glide Desktop Atop Linux: The Powerful, Cost Effective, Compatible Alternative to Windows Vista and Mac OS X; Linux Users Download Glide Sync Today; Sync Your Files and Glide to Desktop Freedom

NEW YORK, Aug. 13 / - The Linux PC just became user friendly and compatible with Windows, Mac and most smartphones making it an attractive alternative for businesses and consumers to Windows and Mac.

Glide Sync is available today for download at http://www.glideos.com/ completing the Glide Desktop solution for Linux. Glide Sync currently supports Linux 2.6 / x86 architecture (Intel x86 and compatible CPUs including AMD x86). Glide Sync support for Linux x64 architectures (Intel x86-64 / IA- 64, and AMD64) will be added in September.

"We encourage Linux users to download Glide Sync today, and businesses and consumers in the market to purchase new PCs to consider the Linux OS alternative," said TransMedia Chairman and CEO, Donald Leka. "Consumers and businesses have largely outgrown the fishbowl desktop that Microsoft and Apple have essentially provided for 25 years. Glide's synchronization and compatibility engines are a game changer for the Linux OS making it possible to work seamlessly with Windows, Mac OS X and even most smartphones. If you don't want to be restricted by one system, Glide makes it possible to control your technological landscape. The Glide Desktop on Linux can mean more freedom and cost savings for businesses and consumers."
