Linux at Industrial Light and Magic
Nicholas DePetrillo writes "Linux Journal has a big story about how LINUX is being used in hollywood, specificly at Industrial Light and Magic with some GREAT screenshots

Of course, performance doesn't suffer when you upgrade from a 5 y/o processor to a new top-of-the-line processor.
Most of the descriptions about speed up seem to be directly attributable to Intel, not Linux...
