BOXX Technologies Inc., has a plan to provide users with a smooth transition to Microsoft Windows Vista by fully testing and certifying all BOXX Workstations and renderBOXX products for use with Vista.
BOXX Labs is completing testing with a long list of professional applications for the 3DBOXX 8300 Performance Series workstation. As a commitment to ensure that all BOXX workstations and render nodes perform to the high standards that visual effects and design professionals expect from BOXX systems, the company has established a certification and optimization program specifically for Vista.
Extensive tests are being performed with the entire 3DBOXX line of workstations and with renderBOXX nodes to certify and optimize system performance with visual effects applications while running the Microsoft Windows Vista operating system. We believe Vista has many features that will positively impact both creativity and workflow for digital artists who work in sophisticated creative environments. As always, our primary concern is to deliver reliable professional computing tools designed to run advanced applications, said Francois Wolf, director of marketing for BOXX Technologies. Professionals can come to BOXX to get dependable advice during technology transitions so as to fully leverage innovations for their business.
Currently, only the Ultimate version of Microsoft Windows Vista is available on BOXX Workstations. This version includes all the features found in the other Vista versions, but also provides protection against data loss with Windows BitLocker Drive encryption.
