Linux in the real world - in the wild

,----[ Quote ]
| I got to thinking about this again recently thanks to a Digg post: Vatican 
| Runs Linux Yes, apparently they run Linux behind the scenes for some TVs in 
| the gift shop. I wonder where else the Vatican is using Linux. This also 
| makes me want to know where else have you seen or known Linux to be running? 
| If it is embedded, you likely don't know that you have seen a device running 
| Linux but maybe you've seen a Linux desktop somewhere like your local 
| library, school, or in my case a hotel in Berlin.
