“The 2007 International Consumer Electronic Show is one of the
ultimate tech-toy and gadget shows on the planet. There’s something
for nearly anyone, and while not quite a household word, Linux
technology has gained rapid stature in the consumer-electronics
industry, as demonstrated by vastly increased cognizance of both
Linux users and Linux embedded technology.“When walking through the shows of prior CES shows, you could
get the most amusing looks on people’s faces when you asked the
question, ‘Does it work with Linux?’ Sometimes there would be the
awkward stares, a pause, then the retort, ‘Excuse me? Linucks?
What’s that, please…?'”
