Microway Delivers WhisperStation™ Ultra Quiet Workstation
for Demanding 64-bit HPC, Engineering and Enterprise Applications

Kingston, MA - March 15, 2005: Microway announces the immediate availability of their quiet workstation. WhisperStation™ is ideal for 64-bit compute-intensive applications, yet quiet enough for a soothing supercomputing experience.

Designed from the ground up for ultimate customer satisfaction, the WhisperStation™ standard configuration features dual AMD Opteron or Intel Xeon EM64T processors, an NVIDIA™ FX1300 PCI Express Graphics engine, 2GB memory, ultra-quiet fans and power supply, and a Viewsonic™ 20" LCD monitor.

WhisperStation™ is available with a 64 bit Linux or Windows operating system. It can be custom configured to exact user specifications including large hard disks and RAID, and specialized applications such as Mercury's amiraMOL, PathScale's EKO Compiler Suite or the Intel Performance Tools.

"This workstation was developed for a group of power hungry design engineers at a Fortune 500 automotive firm who needed a peaceful environment for total concentration. Our design team built a robust, noise dampening system to provide the ultimate 64-bit performance at a reasonable price. When I show it to visiting customers, their most common reaction is: Is it on?" commented Bill Applegate, Director of Sales for Microway.

Available for delivery in the standard configuration or a customized system to meet your needs. Call a Microway sales engineer for assistance - 508-746-7341.
