The anonymous donor who offered $200,000 to fund two prizes for the
development of xBox Linux has taken off his mask. And yes, it is as
most people who care about such things suspected all along, Michael
Robertson, CEO of Lindows.com.
He is extending the deadline for part B of the prize for another year.
This is to enable hackers to produced a Linux capable of running on
xBox with no hardware modifications. The original deadline was the end
of 2002.
The terms of Part A of the prize, to run Linux on the Microsoft games
machine, has been accomplished. The distribution of $100,000 to
several hackers as their reward is expected to be completed by the end
of January, 2003, The Xbox Linux Project says. ®
