Personally I would only ever develop with embedded Linux.
That way all the limitation encounted with expanding
a product can be overcome because you would be forever
beholdent on micoshaft's whims on licensing, terms and conditions
that would burden down product development, compared
to the fully open sourced GNU/Linux platform.
Even the most basic microchips are going 16 and 32 bit
while prices are going in a downward spiral.
There is no justification for developing embedded
products with micoshaft any more.
