[News] Linux is a Doll

Chumby CEO looks forward to hacker input

,----[ Quote ]
| Most CEOs would faint dead away if you said you'd taken a prototype of 
| their new electronic device, ripped off the housing, reconfigured its 
| innards, hacked your way through its code, and then sewn the whole thing 
| into the stomach of a Teletubby doll.

| [...]

| The prototype version currently uses embedded Linux running the
| 2.4.20 kernel, but will ship with a later version. According to
| Duane Maxwell, head of software for Chumby Industries, "We're
| planning on moving to Linux 2.6, not sure yet which version,
| but we're trying to get as close to the latest version while
| still getting stability on our processor."
