That is why I'm having such an easy time shooting down your blatant support of everything Microsoft does.

I don't support everything they do. But i'm not stupid enough to reject everything they do out-of-hand.

Like I said, I don't know a lot about embedded systems. I didn't say Windows CE wasa great solution, because I don't know if it is. You seem to know a lot about embedded systems, so I thought I'd ask and hoped I'd get an answer. Oh well.

"I have to believe Windows CE would be a good fit in some applications."
I agree with you here - low-quantity, expensive applications where the designers aren't smart enough to do it the right way, where they can afford to waste money and where reliability doesn't matter.


I assume since you just called CE unreliable, that you have fully tested it and developed with it quite a bit. After all, only an idiot would just dismiss a product that may be a useful solution.
