#180565 - Two Camps Here
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I think there are two camps here.

One group has limited real platform implementation experience and thinks of I/O synchronization as a "real time activity" and thus immediately thinks RTOS (real time operating system). It is also common that members of this class are recently from the academic community and have taken course work in real time computing and application of RTOS implementations.

Another group works at a "larger" company where the structure of a project is decided more by managers and architects. These folks very often do not have practical implementation experience and thus immediately leap onto the RTOS bandwagon when any real time computing presents itself. These larger organizations often have the additional budget money to be able to afford to deploy an RTOS such as embedded Linux, VX-Works or others.

it just struck me, is this why RTOS 'need' is so prevalent?            01/01/70 00:00
