In fact, the VR unit’s move to Linux was driven largely by Magma GmbH, which supplies Audi with simulation software to plan the manufacturing process
for new car designs before prototypes are available. Magma had never optimized its simulation tool for HP-UX or other variants of Unix, but had done
so for Linux systems from Linux Networx and Siemens Fujitsu. Windows wasn’t even an option because Magmasoft, the simulation software, doesn’t run on
that platform.
