I Love this:
Without access to such equipment, facilities, sophisticated methods, concepts and coordinated know-how, it would be difficult or impossible for the Linux development community to create a grade of Linux adequate for enterprise use.
Alan Cox wrote the first SMP version of Linux. Do you know who bought
Alan the hardware? It was Caldera :-)

I thought it was David Miller and that the first SMP Linux was on SPARC. Am I remembering incorrectly?
First Linux SMP work was sponsored by Caldera

This is delicious. A message posted on Nov 2, 1995 backs this up, saying: "See http://www.linux.org.uk/SMP/title.html for details on this project. Caldera simply bought Alan some SMP hardware to help get the project off the ground."
