  I was watching a TV "special" on the upcoming "The Hulk" movie last night.  
They were interviewing some people from ILM[1] and showing how they created
the CG[2] "Hulk" character.  I noticed that several of the systems were
running the GNOME desktop, and at least one had a "Red Hat" icon on the
desktop.  I knew that ILM had been using Linux heavily for some time, but it
was still cool to see it on TV.  :-)

    special effects, and are still the number one movie FX company.
