Our Community
|
One company cannot do everything, thus we concentrate on system administration.
We are a sysadmin boutique. We cannot write kernels, device drivers, compilers,
php applications or databases. We are where we are today, because we stand on the
shoulders of others. It is important to give back to the community.
If you need help or sponsorship for a project which is related to our business, please contact us.

4. Punggol Community Forum
A residents forum for Punggol. Our system administrator and web designer who live in Punggol

5. Fantastico De Luxe ; fire disaster in Greece Aug '07
Fantastico is a important part of many webhosting companies running cPanel. It allows users to
install many web applications with just a few clicks, rather than going through command lines and
setting up mysql databases manually.
In Aug '07, Ilias Moisidis of Netenberg (the company which gives us Fantastico), sent out an appeal
for donations to the victims of the fire disaster in Greece. These are his people, and we consider
Fantastico as part of the webhosting family.
Xssist contributed a modest amount to the fund which is matched by Netenberg.
