SNAPGEAR
Australia-based Snapgear began in 1995 as device maker Moreton Bay, before its acquisition by Lineo. Despite its strength in developing uClinux-based security solutions, the former Moreton Bay group's focus was primarily hardware-oriented, so Lineo spun it back out under the “SnapGear” name during Lineo's strategic shift toward software and tools (prior to Lineo's subsequent acquisition by Metrowerks).
