Super Talent MasterDrive MX with Ubuntu Linux Bundle

The "ultimate laptop SSD" now available with free operating system and OpenOffice. Super Talent Technology will include a free CD containing the Ubuntu Desktop Edition Linux operating system and the OpenOffice software suite with every MasterDrive MX shipped from July 1 through September 30, 2008.

With the Ubuntu Desktop Edition, you can surf the web, read email, create documents and spreadsheets, edit images and much more. Ubuntu has a fast and easy graphical installer right on the Desktop CD. Installation typically takes less than 25 minutes. OpenOffice contains a user interface and feature set that is similar to other office suites, and includes all the key desktop applications you need, such as word processor, spreadsheet and presentation.

"Bundling an excellent OS plus applications package like Ubuntu helps MasterDrive MX customers get up and running that much faster and easier. This is a great value add that doesn’t increase the cost”, explains Super Talent Marketing Director, Joe James.

Built with MLC NAND Flash, the MasterDrive MX is completely silent, lightweight, uses less power and has far better resistance to shock and vibration than a hard drive, and supports lightning fast read speeds of up to 120MB/sec. MasterDrive MX SSDs are available through NewEgg and NewBiiz.
