What
is Pixel selling? How different is it from others? |
 |
Pixel
Computers is more than just a hardware integration or software
development company. Pixel's sells tailor made Linux based solutions
to suit small to large enterprises. The difference - Software
and hardware are bundled together making it a bundled solution,
this boosts system performance. Also reliability and future
protection are ensured as the software is developed using open
standards, making it a complete solution. |
| |
 |
 |
Are
Pixel Servers "Branded"? |
 |
All
server components and sub assemblies are from branded, well-established
companies, most of them ISO 9000 certified. These companies
are based in Taiwan.
Pixel servers go through a 48-hour "burn-in" test
in its R&D labs before installation. The components chosen
have been designed have a mean MTBF of over 50,000 hours.
|
| |
 |
 |
What
are the hardware standards under which these servers are manufactured? |
 |
All
the servers are manufactured by ISO 9000 approved companies
and as per CE and FCC regulations. |
| |
 |
 |
How
are the Pixel Servers a better buy? |
 |
Surely
the Pixel Servers are a better Buy. They come with tailored
bundled solutions, like an appliance with batteries included!
Also, let's take into account the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
of any other server (with other commercial software implementation
and configuration) and compare it with a Pixel Server, you will
surely find Pixel Servers are the best buy in town!

 |
What
does "responsible solutions" mean? |
 |
This
is an interesting question. Support is the most important issue
in any business today. A responsible solution is one that is
based on OpenSource technology or Open Standards. Pixel uses
these standards, which ensures that the software does not die
in a short span of time but would be supported almost forever. |
| |
 |
 |
We
have invested in other commercial operating system; does it
make sense to invest in a Pixel Server now? |
 |
It
depends on the cost of buying reasonable upgrades/licenses as
per your company's growth rate. If your company has good prospects
and that is costing your company more money in terms of extra
licenses/upgrades, do check with Pixel on how its solutions
can help you save that money!
|
| |
 |
 |
Ok,
we already have a "Branded Server" but we want your
services/software customization |
 |
Yes!
Pixel can offer this service on a case-to-case basis. Pixel
requires all the information and support on the "branded
server" you are using.
However, Pixel's experience has found that some proprietary
hardware may not work well with Pixel's implementation of Linux.
Pixel then is limited to offer solutions to such hardware. Pixel
strongly believes that its superior software implementation
adds value to your hardware.
Do get in touch, Pixel is open to working at multi-levels. |
| |
 |
 |
How
are Pixel's solutions future protected? |
 |
In
today's changing world, Pixel has faster processors to match
the speeds for bigger programs (memory hogs) of software companies.
Linux is changing too and in many fold. In fact Linux boasts
of several features that popular Operating Systems can only
dream of currently. Contact Pixel Computers for more info. Pixel
can demonstrate how the Pixel Servers are future protected.
|
| |
 |
 |
Do
you have an upgrade/update Policy? |
 |
Yes,
Pixel has an update/upgrade pricing that is realistic and is
based on current market pricing of various components. Pixel
however charges a nominal fee for the update/upgrade |
| |
 |
 |
What
kind of support/warranty does Pixel offer? |
 |
Pixel's
standard warranty with the hardware is for 12 months from the
original date of purchase/installation, which ever is earlier.
· Hardware Warranty - Standard Next Business Day Support

What
is Linux? Is it a new game? |
 |
It's
the most happening thing in the technology front. Its giving
other popular operating systems a run for the money if you call
that a game! |
| |
 |
 |
Why
is Linux "HOT"? |
 |
Yes,
it's hot because it's developed in "Internet time".
Hundreds of thousands of users/developers code (develop) and
keep the software updated.
It's also becoming a FAD to say - "I use Linux; do you?"
If you aren't using it you are missing a Whole New World |
| |
 |
 |
If
Linux is free then what is Pixel selling? |
 |
Free
refers to "Freedom" and not "free solution".
Pixel offers Linux services and support. It provides you cost
effective solutions in the shortest span of time. |
| |
 |
 |
How
Can Linux Work for me? |
 |
Well,
you have to inform Pixel Computers what you need the system
to do for you, and if you are using any other system, for what?
It's always possible to offer a solution on Linux. Just a word
of caution - Linux has not been tested to launch rockets into
outer space. |
| |
 |
 |
We
are not familiar with Linux, how can we use a Linux server? |
 |
When
you buy a Pixel Server you enjoy the benefits of a well-configured
Linux system, ready to go! Its hassle free, an easy to administer
Linux system, and developed for people with little or no knowledge
of Linux. |
| |
 |
 |

 |
If
it is a community effort, who supports Linux? |
 |
Yes!
Linux is the world's largest community effort and development
occurs in Internet time. It is rapid and effective. There are
thousands of Linux user groups popularly known as LUGs and almost
every city has it's own LUG. There are several forums where
Linux users can post technical questions and answers are normally
available in less than 1 hour. This service is voluntary, done
in good sprit and is an emerging contributory culture in today's
commercial world. |
| |
 |
 |
If
it's so good, why don't we see everyone using this wonderful
technology? |
 |
Linux
is not made by any single company or a country, so obviously
there is no real "marketing budget".
Also, Linux is built in a very modular fashion that gives users
ultimate flexibility to configure as required. The flexibility
to configure has resulted in a steep learning curve, a curve
that requires a Linux specialist to study and offer. This is
where Pixel Computers comes into the picture.
Pixel
Computers has been using and implementing Linux solutions
over a long period of time and has the knowledge and capability
to offer a solution quickly to suit your requirement.
When you buy a Pixel Server you enjoy the benefits of a well-configured
Linux system, ready to go! Its hassle free, an easy to administer
Linux system, and developed for people with little or no knowledge
of Linux.
