Sri Lankan Personal Computer (PC) manufacturer EZY recently delivered 40 of its Optimax range of computers to Kandy's Trinity College, according to a statement by the company. It also added that this was the next phase of a project which began in 2010 when EZY, in conjunction with its reseller Browns, supplied 50 computers for Trinity's Primary school lab. Additionally noted, this new installation of 40 computers was for Trinity's upper school lab, and was delivered in coordination with EZY authorised reseller Tektron.
The statement also indicated that these two new computer labs were a result of a project "spearheaded by the Alumni of the 1987 class of Trinity College who were instrumental in designing the requirements and sponsoring this project." It also went on to add that EZY's involvement was a result of the PC manufacturer offering up a winning bid, which also followed a series of presentations.
Further added, Tektron contributed the 40 EZY Optimax computers in addition to the "Microsoft Windows licence, the entire network infrastructure with server installation along with the deployment of classroom management software for teacher use."
Meanwhile, according to Fazley Azhar, Trinity's project chairman, who was quoted in EZY's statement, “EZY’s aggressive involvement in computer product research" and the "fact that EZY has many computer systems installed in leading schools and academic institutions together with their nationwide service network" were some of the key reasons behind Trinity's selection of EZY's proposal. |
