Windows Embedded Standard Development

If you are interested in the functionality of Windows XP Pro, but have limited disk space and don't need all the additional end-user features that are part of the XP operating system, then Windows Embedded Standard may be an excellent solution for you. Also, with Windows Embedded Standard, we can continue to install an OS that mimics the functionality of Windows XP long after Windows XP is discontinued. Logic Supply is a certified Windows Embedded Partner—we have a full staff of trained professionals who are knowledgeable and ready to assist you.

Items we can customize (OS):

• User interface – desktop, start menu, control panel functionality
• Pre-installed software (pre-designed application or additional Windows features)
• Functionality – network services, tools (command prompt tools, management tools), accessories (remote desktop services, accessibility features), write protection filters (EWF, HORM)
• Components for peripherals (e.g., drivers)

Benefits of using Windows Embedded Standard for embedded and appliance computing:

• Smaller footprint (can be as small as 200 MB+)
• Highly tailored to customer’s requirements
• Greater variety of mass storage media available for use (USB, CD-ROM, SSD)
• Write protection filters (EWF); acts as additional security for the content on your computer
• Faster boot time with HORM (Hibernate Once, Resume Many)
• Easy to deploy (no activation necessary); ideal for volume projects
  

Linux Development

If you are interested in the flexibility and versatility of an open-source platform, and cost is a key factor in your project, then a Linux OS may be the best solution for you. Logic Supply has teamed up with Canonical as a Solution Provider Partner in order to offer our customers systems that will seamlessly run on Ubuntu. We have a staff of trained professionals who are knowledgeable and ready to begin assisting you.

Items we can customize:

• Installed software packages
• System and application configuration
• Kernel modules including drivers for additional hardware support
• Custom kernel patches and versions
• Limited source-level customizations

Benefits of using Linux for embedded and appliance computing:

• Unlimited potential for customization
• Full access to information about system internals
• Scales to any balance of size and feature set, from a few megabytes to a full multimedia platform
• Cost-effective licensing
• High availability of pre-existing software saves development cost
