PROFILE |
 |
LynuxWorks is embedding its software inside your head. The company's LynxOS operating system lets Hewlett-Packard, Boeing, Lucent Technologies, and other customers develop the miniaturized computers known as embedded systems that are built into hardware for airplanes, cellular phone switches, copiers, and other products. The company (formerly Lynx Real-Time Systems) caters to embedded systems developers working with Linux, the open-source operating system that has found some favor over Microsoft Windows for its speed and flexibility. LynuxWorks is expanding consulting and other services as it moves to a royalty-free strategy. CEO Inder Singh owns 22% of the company. Motorola also owns about a fifth of LynuxWorks.
