Wired: Transmeta Takes Linux Plunge Mar 14, 2001, 13 :44 UTC (17 Talkback[s]) (6463 reads) (Other stories by Leander Kahney)
"...The release of Midori Linux could raise conflict of interest
questions for Torvalds."
"Torvalds has the last word on new features in the Linux
kernel, and has avoided working for Linux distributors to
maintain his neutrality."
"But now that the company he works for has released Linux
software, does Transmeta have a fast track to new features
beneficial to the company? "
"Adding fuel to the fire, there have been complaints recently
that Linux hasn't addressed the needs of computer
manufacturers at the other end of the scale -- makers of
the "big iron" that run server farms and data processing
centers."
