software companies and engineers with the shared mission of
promoting and implementing the Linux operating system in embedded
applications.”
“As a founding member, Metrowerks will join IBM,
Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, 3Com, Red Hat and others to help define

Internet appliances, mobile wireless devices, set-top boxes and
other embedded system applications,” said Greg Stoner, vice
