To Whom It May Concern:
We've taken notice of your business - CircuitCenter Inc. - and its specialization in electronics retail. We would like to work with you in getting YellOS - YellowApple, Inc.'s premier open-source operating system - into your stores as an option for a choice of operating system.
About YellOS
YellOS (YellowApple, Inc. Operating System) is a modular and cross-platform operating system from YellowApple, Inc. renowned for its robustness, low resource consumption, and portability while making no sacrifices in ease of use and appearance. Like all YellowApple, Inc. software products, YellOS is both free as in 'free speech' (released under the GNU General Public License) and 'free beer' (costs absolutely nothing to download, install, use, modify, distribute, or do anything else with).
YellOS is a Unix-like operating system, having originated as an enterprise-grade Linux distribution, and still uses a highly-modular variant of the Linux kernel. These Linux underpinnings have facilitated YellOS's growth from an experiment in high-level coding to among the most trusted names in the enterprise world. Combining low resource consumption with high reliability, security, and usability is the overarching goal of YellOS.
Here's just some of the numerous features available in YellOS:
- Cross-compatibility: the YellOS API Module Subsystem enables users to install API Modules, which provide both API and ABI compatibility with Windows, Mac OS X, Phoenix², and more (note: dependent on target architecture; binaries compiled for one architecture may need to be recompiled to run on another architecture)
- Stability: rebooting is a thing of the past; YellOS's modularity - including kernel and driver redundancy - allows for a YellOS installation to run for as long as the hardware lives
- Performance: native YellOS applications are distributed as platform-neutral bytecode; on officially-supported architectures, the installation process automatically recompiles software packages to platform-specific binaries, taking into account all code optimizations available to the target platform and utilizing them for maximum runtime performance
- Portability: since all YellOS software - even YellOS itself - is distributed in platform-neutral bytecode, YellOS can install and run on virtually any system that the installer will run on - which is (you guessed it) virtually any system
- Scalability: YellOS installations on the same local area network can coordinate with each other and form ad-hoc computing clusters out-of-the-box, making all YellOS-powered computers and devices work faster; alternately, YellOS Cluster Edition enables even users with minimal computing knowledge to harness the power of dedicated cluster computing in their own homes
- Pizazz: the YellOS Graphical Shell (YOS-GS) is fully three-dimensional, and vector-based graphics make YellOS look beautiful on any screen size and pixel density
- Security: process isolation, intelligent memory management, multi-tiered security levels, support for multi-factor authentication, and a myriad of other features make malware obsolete; plus, if an exploit is found, YellOS's open-source design model allows for rapid security updates
- Usability: the YellOS Graphical Shell - and the included applications - are powerful, beautiful, and user-friendly, making them suitable for novices and power users alike; plus, the integrated YellOS Package Management System not only provides users with all kinds of software just a click or tap away, but also updates both the operating system and installed software automatically and without fuss
YellOS Desktop Edition can run on as low as 512MB of RAM with a single 2.0GHz RISC-architecture core. We recommend at least 1-2GB of physical RAM and a dual-core CPU for a retail desktop machine. YellOS is officially supported (by YellowApple, Inc.) on SPARC (including and especially YellowApple, Inc.'s YA-SPARC variant), IA32, AMD64, IA64, ARM (32 or 64 bit), PowerPC/POWER, MIPS, and various other embedded architectures, while YellOS community developers - thanks to YellOS being free, libre, and open source software (FLOSS) - have ported the operating system to a wide array of more obscure architectures.
We therefore encourage your company to consider including YellOS among the operating system options available for your company's desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. The operating system itself costs nothing to you, and we offer competitively-priced and comprehensive support contracts to retailers of YellOS-powered machines if needed. Combine this with what YellOS can bring to your products, and you've got one heck of an offer.
For more information about YellOS, please consult YellOS's encyclopædic entry or check out YellOS product page at the YellowApple, Inc. Corporate Frontend and Storefront.
Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to doing business with you.
Sincerely,
Corporate Representative Colgate
