>Just wondering why Microsoft did not choose Wind as partner? It takes two to tango. INTS should and does want to make deals like the one with Microsoft. WIND absolutely does not. My guess is that INTS knocked on Microsoft's door, not the other way around. I don't think running Windows CE as a task would be any more difficult for VxWorks than for pSOS. The concept should carry over to just about any RTOS, much like they all implemented JVM this way without too much hassle. But I am always a reluctant believer of the trustworthiness of combined operating systems. Double the operating systems and you quadruple the subtle problems I would expect to surface (I instinctively believe). For that reason, I can't take the pSOS/Windows CE seriously. In a similar vein, I struggle to regard seriously real-time extensions to Windows NT (such as Radisys' real-time add-on to Windows NT). Allen
