                   Linux Creator Will Devote Himself Exclusively to Linux Development

                       (June 17, 2003) - OSDL, a non-profit, global consortium of leading
                       technology companies dedicated to accelerating the adoption of
                       Linux, and Transmeta Corporation today announced that Linus
                   Torvalds, the creator of Linux, will join OSDL as the first OSDL
                   Fellow.(See Torvald's online notice about his "big news.")

                   As an OSDL fellow, Linus will work exclusively on leading the
                   development of Linux, the open source software that he created in 1991
                   as a university student in Finland. Torvalds will dedicate himself now
                   full-time to guiding a distributed team of thousands of Linux developers
                   around the world. At OSDL, he will have hands-on access to its
                   state-of-the-art computing resources and test facility. He will also help set
                   priorities and direction for the Lab's different industry initiatives.
