“Lynx Real-Time Systems, Inc., a leader in embedded Linux
software solutions, announced that Motorola Computer Group
(MCG) (NYSE: MOT), the world’s leading supplier of embedded
computing platforms for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) has
made a minority investment in its company. This is the second
investment Motorola has made in Lynx within the past two
years.”
“Lynx will target this investment to accelerate the development
of their industry leading LynuxWorks(TM) product family. This

high-availability platform used across many telecommunications
segments including cellular infrastructure, data communications and
the Internet.”
“”Motorola is extremely pleased that Lynx has chosen our high
availability and embedded computer products as reference platforms
for its BlueCat Linux offering,” said John Hughes, vice president
