QNX's main thing is realtime support and the <.> api looks like POSIX for the most part so if your applications are written <.> carefully, they could run on BSD or QNX. It's even starting to get very <.> stable with late releases (early versions were a little flakey). <.> <.> brad@pht.com Do you have a pointer of some sort to QNX. thanks dayton
