(And there have been a couple of >weak tries at adding RT extensions to *ix systems...) Both good OS' for >real-time. But what makes them more suited for real-time? I am not sure what you mean by "weak tries at adding RT extensions to *ix systems", but my employer sells a real-time, Unix-like operating system. We even have some competition (whose names I won't mention so I don't advertize them ;-). It is not a "weak try". And, since this is comp.sys.unisys, I will mention that I can run it on my Unisys PW2 850. -- -----------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Alan F.
