Ok, I recognise about half of what's listed there, but what the heck is the rest of it?
This is a reference platform, a piece of hardware for companies to use to develop custom solutions.
Where might a device like this be used? One example might be a touch screen bank ATM, or a touch screen ticket machine for the movie theatre or bus tickets, and so on...
Sure this isn't just an Early April fool, or another IWIN job?
Hardly.. if you did a search for 'powerpc 405 embedded, who knows you might turn up a lot of devices like this.
In devices like these an 'RTOS' (Real Time Operating System) is needed because they require reliability. You surely wouldn't want to run WindowsCE or PocketPC on a device that requires reliability.
An example of another good RTOS would be QNX.. remember when the new version of the AmigaOS was going to be based on this?
