2005/04/22 How Many People Are Using LinuxBIOS? Would you believe 1,000,000?
This question comes up to us all the time. Last week, I got an amazing answer. First, let me mention that I tell skeptical people at vendors all the time, when asked this question: "A lot more than just the cluster community. The real use is in the embedded world". Well, again, last week, I found out just how real that use is.
The system in question is the STPC Consumer. Evidently, this chipset is used in an internet terminal sold in India. It runs LinuxBIOS and Linux.
There are at least one MILLION (1,000,000) of these things in use. I realize that is not much compared to the size of some markets, but had you told me six years ago that one million systems would be using LinuxBIOS in 2005, I don't think I would have believed you.
