This PC is homemade. The point was that Linux is too intolerant of such
lashups, while NT is more able to run without problems on the same system.
Granted, comparison on this basis alone is wrong, since the two OSes serve
different purposes. The thing is, an OS which is too hard to implement is worth
little, no matter how powerful it is.
All things considered, we are leaning toward finding another OS for the
embedded applications, the ones that require hard reliability, and using Linux
where its characteristics do not get in the way so much.

As the English used to say, horses for courses.
