Unh, Have you considered OS-9?  Granted, a 2MZ COCO isn't as fast as an amiga,
but it IS a LOT cheaper.  OS-9 is designed for real-time work and can even
be ROMmed, once you get your stuff working right.  It's also pretty nice to
work with in most cases (looking quite a bit like UNIX[tm]).
 I know the U of A physics got a stack of them to do (student) experiment
controls, though I'm not sure that they all run under OS-9.
   [I STILL think that C-A would have been beter off with OS-9, but, c'est
la vie.
