Sep. 25, 2002

Oslo, Norway -- (press release excerpt) -- Opera is proud to announce that its sales referral partner Ximian will include a customized version of the Opera Web browser as a download option in its Red Carpet software management program for Linux users.

Red Carpet is a software management solution used by many Ximian Desktop users, which keeps Linux systems up to date efficiently and securely. The program allows users to install, update and maintain software over the Internet from Ximian, leading Linux distribution providers, and other independent software vendors.

Red Carpet provides multi-platform support and updates systems running a broad range of Linux distributions such as Red Hat, SuSE, Mandrake, Debian and more. Opera offers Red Carpet users the ideal Linux browser for their desktop.

When users register Opera, they remove the banner advertisement, increase the browsing window area, and receive personal technical support. In addition, users who register Opera 6 will now receive an Opera Power Kit complete with Opera Power CD, Opera Mouse Gestures Pad, and Opera sticker, as well as a free upgrade to Opera 7.

The customized browser offered through Red Carpet is designed with Opera Composer, a tool that lets larger businesses and organizations personalize the browser according to their needs. Opera for Linux offers users the latest in browser security. The combination of Opera and Red Carpet creates a powerful Internet power pack for software updates and Internet browsing.

Compose your own Opera browser here. Linux users may download the Red Carpet application or Ximian Desktop.
