It's not just Microsoft that's in the sights of the Linux hobbyists. A similar project has been set up to open source Apple's iconic iPod.
If you fancy replacing the Apple logo on your iPod with Tux the Penguin's fizog, you can learn more at the iPodLinux wiki. However, only users of older models of iPods can put on their Tux, although techies are working on more recent models at the moment.
And if you're wondering quite why you'd want to put Linux on your MP3 player, it's worth noting that changing to an open source operating system means you can play the game Doom on your iPod as a result.
