Does anyone out there have any experience with a real-time "Unix-
compatible" operating system called LynxOS (Lynx Real-Time Systems,
Campbell, CA)?  We are considering using it for a communications
controller project, but hate to buy it solely on the basis of its
marketing slicks.  

I suspect that many real-time programmers are not particularly
Unix-fluent.  We're just the opposite:  we do little real-time work,
and work most often with Unix (SunOS).  The problem we need to solve
is quite straightforward, so minimizing our learning curve and pain
is the most important criterion.  

Please reply directly to me at the address below.  If appropriate, I
will summarize the results to the net.

Thanks!
Dan
