Till now you may seen the things running the Linux , like Super computers , robots, machinery & space equipment etc…. But today we are going to discuss the smallest thing running Linux (A Business card of a person).
An Embedded System Engineer named George Hilliard created his Business card which runs Linux while plugging it to computers.It said to be taking 6 second to load Linux after plugging the card to computer device (Till you blink your eyes one or two times , may be).
George Hilliard claimed that the one single card cost him approx $2.88 (Material cost only , his R&D time/money not included).
This card is actually a USB flash drive from which Linux is loaded , It also contains a copy of George’s CV (Resume), and some photography.
It also has some games, a few utilities, and some free space for recipient need/want (To save something to the card).
For more detail about this card go to George Hilliard‘s article here.
