New surge pushes Linux Indy car fund-raising close to $12,000


Amazing stuff. The Linux guys are starting to pick up some momentum in their quest to raise $350,000 and put a car in the Indy 500. In the days since my last post (see here) they’ve surged from $11,243.62 to $11,927.88. Haven’t received my “Thank you” note from Bob Moore of Tux500 yet but I’d like to think I helped out. For a view of the overall effort, see the Tux500 website here. Can’t you just see that lady from Sun rolling her eyes and exclaiming how amazing this is and how things are going so beautfully? Countdown has begun. They have eleven days left to raise the remaining $337,072.12. The suspense is killing me!
