Linux Kernel Developers Issue Statement re: Open Drivers
,----[ Quote ]
| While the vast majority of devices now have open source drivers, there are a
| few holdouts. The kernel community wants to send a clear signal to these
| vendors as well as prevent any future vendors from following the closed
| source path and preventing their uses from getting all the benefits of
| Linux’s open development model.

Linux still super in Top500
,----[ Quote ]
| In the June 2008 Top500 list, Linux still lives large with a role in 92% of
| systems (It is the only OS for 85.4%, but when considering all distributions
| (SUSE, Red Hat, CentOS, and general ‘Linux,’ as well as mixed uses that
| include Linux, I figure the share is more like the 92%).
