What's a FoolProof QUBE?

It's a small, self-contained, turn-key computer system measuring
7 1/4 inches per side that could be your school's answer for
high-powered Internet caching, filtering, file serving and more.
All for under $2,650.

What does a FoolProof QUBE include?

Filtering Software:  revolutionary FoolProof Internet SafeServer
that blocks inappropriate sites based on real-time content
analysis so that the bad sites get blocked and the good sites get
through, all without the need to constantly download list updates.

Caching Software:  SafeServer also caches all web page
retrievals, significantly speeding up performance and access
time to repetitively requested sites throughout the school.

File Sharing:  supports central file storage and sharing for
both Mac and Windows users.

Operating System:  utilizes the industry-standard, Linux
operating system, but you control it with a simple browser
interface from any computer.

System Hardware:  uses 64 bit superscalar microprocessor with 32
MB RAM, 6.4GB hard drive, and two Ethernet network interfaces
for connecting the Qube between Local Area Network and your
Internet gateway. No monitor or keyboard required.

Internet Applications:  includes web serving, email, private
discussion groups, HTML page generation, firewall security and more.

Why could this be a great solution for your school?

The FoolProof QUBE is designed to be easy to use, simple to
install, and include all the server capabilities a school needs to
share information and access the Internet safely and efficiently --
all for less than the typical server hardware costs without
software.  Even if you already have Internet filtering supplied at
the district or state level, the FoolProof QUBE gives you the
ability to customize the level of blocking, increase local Internet
performance through caching, share files between users, set up
your own internal web site and email, etc., etc.  In other words,
meet all your local server needs.
