Operating systems

HP is pleased to offer a variety of operating systems for you to try out. Make sure your code runs on the most popular operating systems before your competitors do, or try out operating systems you don't have access to on your own systems. From HP's own HP-UX to Linux,FreeBSD and Windows, you can try them out through TestDrive.

Since this site allows multiple users to access the TestDrive systems simultaneously in an open environment, use this TestDrive as a way to quickly try out the platform, and not as a clinical means of evaluating the performance of the hardware or operating system. If you're looking for performance proof of the platform, join the DSPP Partner Program and take a secure test-drive behind our firewall, or visit one of HP's Porting Centers.
