Yeah, but they nickle & dime you on every single little utility that one
takes for granted with a real *nix. Want grep? It'll cost you. vi?

Well, the source code exists and should be compilable on anything

The LynuxWorks (dumb name -- was formerly Lynx) folks are now working

the unmodified Linux binaries on LynxOS or BlueCat -- their real time
Linux.
