explain?? OK.

From http://www.rtlinux.com :

"RTLinux (RTL:Original and RTL:BSD) is a fast, predictable realtime
operating system that runs Linux or NetBSD in its spare time. It was
created by FSMLabs which sells, supports and develops it. The PATENTED
RTLinux design provides extreme realtime performance but allows
programmers to make use of the powerful features and applications of a
full-scale POSIX operating system."
