Subject: Dell/NCR executive now leading Penguin Computing

Hey, folks. I wanted to let you know that the New Year has
brought exciting developments to Penguin Computing. On Jan. 15 Penguin
Computing will publicly announce that the company has appointed Marty
Seyer as President and CEO of Linux hardware company Penguin Computing.

Marty is a 19-year computer industry veteran with extensive experience
in the enterprise server market. Marty created Dell's PowerEdge brand,
and most recently served as General Manager of the high-availability
server business at NCR.

Marty's hiring is a clear indication that Penguin Computing will
continue to drive its growth the old-fashioned way -- by being
customer-centered from beginning to end, every time. Marty's objective
in coming to Penguin Computing is to focus the company on operational
excellence, and will lead new initiatives in customer relationship
management and e-business integration with its customers, partners and
suppliers.

I'd like to schedule a briefing conference call between you and Marty
on Thursday or Friday. We'd like to go over Marty's experience and his
vision for where Penguin Computing is headed. Please let me know if
you have any available time.

Thanks,
--
