On an airplane ride to sunny California earlier this year, I sat next to 
a network engineer who just happened to be an employee of Ford Detroit. 
I asked him about this subject, knowing that Ford Europe was looking at 
Linux seriously. He said they are definitely taking Linux into serious 
consideration. I think SAN connectivity was a big deal for them. That 
was back in March, but I can tell you, he sure sounded serious about the 
prospects of Linux at Ford.

Very cool. I just hope it really happens!
