i-Newswire, 2005-01-30 - Czech Post relies on APOST, a customized system used by 20,000 employees for all postal operations. APOST had been running on a range of operating systems including DOS and Microsoft Windows NT, but reached a point where running in a proprietary environment was proving too costly. With a disparate environment across 3,400 locations, Czech Post was experiencing increased administration costs, as well as downtime and security issues.

According to this link the system has been rolled out with assistance from Novell consultants.

Chip, chip ... Chipping awaaaaay!
