Diamond launches Linux software development kits

,----[ Quote ]
| Diamond Systems has launched a series of Linux 
| software development kits (SDKs).
| 
| Each SDK includes a tiny solid-state IDE 
| 'flash-disk' module - preloaded with a Linux OS 
| - that plugs directly into one of Diamond's SBC 
| or ERS products, ready to boot and run 
| immediately.
| 
| With all required drivers preconfigured and 
| ready to use, these Linux-bootable flash disks 
| complement Diamond's processor modules to 
| create solid-state Linux-based embedded 
| computers.

Linux is a leading force in this area. It just doesn't advertise (i.e. lie).

Embedded Linux research report ships

,----[ Quote ]
| EDC noted that some 40 percent of the survey's 500 respondents were targeting
| embedded Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| Also in the earlier reports, Andrews observed that the need for RTOS source
| code was "one of the reasons that proprietary RTOSes created in-house for a
| specific system have long been popular, and now it's a primary motivating
| factor in the adoption of Embedded Linux."
|
| The now completed survey results are said to include "expert analysis" from
| Ann Thryft, a 20-year industry veteran. The report includes chapters on
| platforms, processors, tools, languages, security, target devices, mobile
| development, and of course, Linux.
