What about Linux running on a $100 handheld controlling an AIBO?

The AIBO itself sadly isn't running Linux, but it's not running its
normal "OS" either.

I'm tempted to wonder what is the _largest_ thing running Linux, and
I'm not talking just about supercomputers with lots of nodes
either.  I'm sure someone must have put Linux on a giant robot or a
steam-powered analogue computer or something by now.
