Check out the Force Computers web site in greater detail.

Their systems do use WinNT. They mentioned several operating systems (all produced by Microsoft) in their Telecom 97 demo, but not VxWorks. The PR is at forcecomputers.com

Supporting the customer solutions are examples of some of the building blocks FORCE employs in generating solutions for the customer, together with examples of how FORCE builds application ready platforms from these off-the-shelf elements and custom design. These building blocks comprise SPARC, PowerPC, Pentium and 68K based CPU boards and systems. Illustrating an element of FORCE's telecom specific systems is the teleforce, a SPARC based application ready platform with high-availability features and NEBS compliancy.

An exiting new development is also being demonstrated by FORCE with their Penturar family of embedded Windows NT workstations based upon the CompactPCI architecture. Pentura is a combination of the best features of leading edge complementary technologies: the price/performance of the PCI bus; the PC compatibility of the Pentium architecture; the application availability of Windows NT. All designed to embedded principles: eurocard mechanics, passive backplanes, expandability and ruggedness. CompactPCI provides a new medium for the development and deployment of telecommunications applications. The use of PC compatible technology significantly reduces the complexity of interface designs, thus reducing time-to-market. In addition, legacy software written for Windows 3.1, 95 or NT , such as for Call Centre and IVR applications, will run unchanged on this new platform.
