Linksys found a place in the market because they had a free network operating systems (and webserver, and ftp server, .... ) Handed to them if not for that they would still be a niche maker of cheap hardware. The owners would not be nearly as wealthy with cysco money.. BTW Another company that got its start because of Linux was Caldera, what are they called today?
LOL get real, Solaris and OSX are still closed operating systems
Solaris yes, apple... well most of the fun parts are but whats your point, you are unable to find a single post in my posting history where I say I am against closed source software, I have challenged you so many times I lose count but yet *nothing*.
you obviously like fully open ones
I also own and like Mac's hell if we don't count Xen on my one linux box Apple outnumbers Linux at my house. And Ill be first in line when 10.5 comes out later this year.. Again you spend more time accusing people of outrageous things than you do listening to them..
ROFL very few Linksys products used Linux and now even the standard wrt54g uses vxworks instead of Linux too. Linux fanbois are such a joke, you comparing Linus Torvalds to Ben Franklin yesterday is another hilarious example.
