21 years agoHi bjskill,
If you ask 3 people, you'll probably get 3 different answers. And there are 3 operating systems that come immediately to mind: uClinux, eCos, and MicroC/OS-II > What operating system would be the best choice when considering the > memory footprint, cost, and technical support? Only you can determine this -- these are all relative to what you need and what you're willing to spend. For example, if I need a full-featured samba server I'll use linux -- the memory footprint becomes irrelevant. If I have serveral eCos experts on staff, access to the mailing list might be all the support I need ... and so forth. Take a good look at the docs considering your requirements ... then try out the different operating systems, look through the code, etc. If you have some _specific_ requirements, I'm sure you can get some excellent feedback from this forum. Good luck & Happy New Year, --Scott
