Feral, I love it! Just think how LinuxCNC would be accepted if Android was called LinuxAndroid! Or we had LinuxWeb as the main term for the internet.
How many people have heard of QNX? Not many. My first retrofit was installing OpenCNC on a 5 axis Cinci. QNX was the underlying realtime system. I showed a Fanuc service guy how to boot it up. His face had a shocked look on it when the boot up was finished. He said the boot up screens looked just like the fanuc control when booted up. We don't see the boot up screens of the fanuc control when we start it. The service guys sometimes see them. QNX is everywhere and has been for a long time. I don't know if Fanuc runs on top of QNX but it wouldn't surprise me. Heh - we don't claim to be marketers but some of us can make parts and some of us can write amazing code. Either group is a very small subset of society. I am proud to be associated with members of both groups. I always like to associate with people much smarter than me.
