if this question can be answered that devices just won't communicate well with each other if they don't all have Wind inside I feel a bit silly chiming in on WIND as much as I have because I have no pretense of knowing the answers to the questions I ask, but there is something about this discussion that begs to have questions asked. Frankly, prior to my introduction to Moore, I doubt I would have asked those questions, but then I suppose the GG has changed the perspective of a number of us. My sense is the WIND inside has nothing at all to do with communicating between, it is merely the means by which, in combination with the resident silicon, that this communication happens. Nothing about VxWorks is built in to the communication protocols for a DSL modem, I believe. It is simply that, using VxWorks, one can fulfill those protocols with less investment in silicon and/or internal software development. Were VxWorks part of the protocols, then they would have their lock, but I don't believe that is the case.
