AUSTIN, TX -- Win4Lin, a leading supplier of Windows-on-Linux virtualization solutions, announced today that Win4Lin Pro, the company's flagship product, has won the LinuxWorld Product Excellence Award in the "Best Integration Solution" category.



Using Win4Lin’s high performance Virtual Computing Environment (VCE), Win4Lin Pro runs Windows 2000 or Windows XP applications and operating systems with no change necessary to the host operating system (e.g. no need to patch the Linux kernel). Win4Lin Pro runs as a Linux process, sharing the Linux memory and file system without yielding control to the Windows guest operating system. Win4Lin Pro runs Windows applications as intended in real Windows. For more information about Win4Lin Pro, please visit www.win4lin.com.

Win4Lin products enable users of all sizes – from individuals and small and medium organizations to large enterprises - to more easily embrace the cost, reliability and security advantages of an end-to-end Linux infrastructure, without having to give up, port or re-write viable legacy Windows applications. Win4Lin provides the most compelling solution for bridging the compatibility gap between Windows and Linux.

“We’re delighted that Win4Lin Pro has been recognized as the Best Integration Solution by the LinuxWorld Expo Product Excellence Awards,” said Jim Curtin, Win4Lin CEO and President. “This product validation will be important to organizations looking to make the migration to Linux but needing to continue to run Legacy Windows applications.”
