Plat'Home Unveils Final Results of "Will Linux Work?"
lat'Home today announced the results of the "Will Linux Work?" contest. For the past month, Plat'Home's OpenMicroServer (OMS) has been in the hands of the four contest winners who have put Linux to the test. By combining Japanese technology with American ingenuity, the "Will Linux Work?" contest showcased the flexibility and incredible range of possibilities for Linux to do amazing things in a diverse range of environments.
The "Will Linux Work?" contest began in late July. Participants were asked to push a normal server's limits and suggest ideas that they would test and reveal if Linux really could work in their environment.
Last month, Plat'Home announced the OMS would be awarded to Steve Castellotti to test the server as a GPS and monitoring device aboard his trimaran, Martin Ewing to test the server as a home utility automation system, Colin Duplantis to test the server as an irrigation control system and Gordon Smith to test the server as monitoring door controller for his chicken coop.
