Daystar Technologies - History

History

Daystar Technology's roots lie with the former Daystar Digital, Inc. In 1997, when Apple discontinued the licensing of Apple clones, GDTS was founded by Gary Dailey. GDTS (Gary Dailey Technology Services) acquired the assets of Daystar Digital, Inc. and managed servicing of the Daystar Digital products which were in the process of manufacturing (work in process). GDTS also offered full support for all of Daystar Digital's past product lines. In October 1998 Daystar Technologies, Inc. was incorporated and it acquired GDTS.

In January 2000, Daystar Technology partnered with Interex, Inc. (later XLR8, Inc.), to re-engineer its line of XLR8 products. The XLR8 line of products incorporated software and hardware IP (Intellectual Property) from Daystar Digital. The addition of the new technologies allowed Interex to develop a line of products with exclusive performance capabilities for the Macintosh Market. The line of products include the MAChCarrier G3, MAChCarrier G4, CarrierZIF and MAChSPeed ZIF upgrades.

In October 2002 Daystar Technology acquired all engineering, IP and resources of the XLR8 brand. It then redesigned all core software products and CPU upgrades for additional performance.

In October 2003 Daystar Technology added XLR8 Brand PowerBook G3 upgrades to its list of offerings. In March 2004, Daystar Technology became an Apple Authorized Reseller and Service Provider. In August 2005, Daystar Technology added iMac Flat Panel Upgrades to their line of product offerings. In January 2006, Daystar Technology added Apple PowerBook G4 upgrades to the XLR8 line of products. In June 2006, Daystar Technology added the ProView USB to its XLR8 line. In October 2006 Daystar Technology added the XtraView USB to its XLR8 line.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution. I say similar in nature. You ask me in what does this nature consist? In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    [Men say:] “Don’t you know that we are your natural protectors?” But what is a woman afraid of on a lonely road after dark? The bears and wolves are all gone; there is nothing to be afraid of now but our natural protectors.
    Frances A. Griffin, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 19, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
