Yes, I do.
And it was pretty good thing. You could do all real time work in iRMX and 
provide some data fur further processing, displaying, storage, etc. to 
Windows.

Well, ideally(!), I would like to run Linux also as a task in RTEMS.
Again, the same goal - I will do all RT work in RTEMS - the best RTOS I ever 
have seen :-) and some networking, peripherals and possibly graphics - in 
Linux.

I know about such things as RT-Linux and similar - all they are very awkward, 
heavy, etc...

Thanks.
