Cisco Romancing Linux Developers
,----[ Quote ]
| Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) is asking developers to instead think "inside the box"
| to create applications that will run on the Linux based Cisco AXP module.
| It's tossing in $100,000 in prize money just to keep it interesting.

| Linux Application availability alone isn't the only thing Cisco is after.
| It's making sure the developer ecosystem has a revenue model that will keep
| Cisco and developers in the black.
