Banrisul is the name of the bank.  Here is their URL:

http://www.banrisul.com.br/

It is a bank of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, the state where the FISL
conference (http://fisl.softwarelivre.org/9.0/www/  - 7000 chanting,
screaming free software people attending) is held.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banrisul

says that it was the first bank in the world to use the Linux Operating
System in an ATM (and I did not make that entry).  I have pictures of
the ATM machine, with the Tux penguin on the front.  I will send them to
you privately so I do not clog up people's email.

I also have several instances of Linux being used in Lottery systems,
both the terminals and the server systems.
