Even Gates and Ballmer can't live without Linux.

| Many network routers and adsl modems use 
| Linux as their operating systems. When you go 
| to print a page there is a big chance that 
| your printer is running on Linux. What about 
| that big game that you recorded on your Tivo 
| or equivalent? That is running on Linux. Have 
| a satellite link for your TV? Some of those 
| also use Linux. Even some of the latest model 
| televisions have Linux running them.
