| It's often forgotten that one of the strengths of GNU/Linux is the
| extraordinary range of platforms it supports. Where the full Windows stack is
| only available for Intel processors - even Windows CE, a distinct code-base,
| only supports four platforms - GNU/Linux is available on a dizzying array of
| other hardware.
