MANILA -- SpecOps Labs, a privately held Philippine software
developer, is set to unveil Thursday the working prototype of
its software that would allow Windows-based applications to
run smoothly on the free and open-source Linux operating system.
By preloading a free operating system like Linux that can
seamlessly run Microsoft programs, the cost of purchasing
personal computers is expected to decline.
Conceptualized and developed by a team of Filipino software
engineers, the primary purpose of David is to provide a platform
that would serve as viable alternative to the Windows operating
system, the company said.
