No. It's not "Linux" that sells embedded devices. Perhaps these devices run 
linux but it is not linux that sells these devices. I'm quite sure that 
very, very, very few people buy a microwave oven or a GPS or a digital 
camera because of linux. They buy it for a completely different reason and 
couldn't care less what OS their "appliance" uses internally.

Don't work there now, have never worked there before. So you are definitely 
full of shit.

And you have proof of this? Of course not because you are a liar like Rex 
Ballard.
