We Saw The Mention On The Linux Bios Website About One Million Devices Shipped With Linux Bios. Could You Tell Us More About These Devices?

Answer»

Yes, these are internet terminals that were built in India, based on the [x86 system-on-chip] STPC chip, I am told; also, there evidently is a Turkish-built digital TV that runs Linux BIOS. I have also HEARD that there are routers and many other embedded devices running Linux BIOS. I think at this point that 1 million is a low number. I am in contact with other set-top BOX vendors that are talking about numbers in the lOs of MILLIONS for their PRODUCTS. These numbers actually make the OLPC numbers seem small, which is in it AMAZING.
