 		 #104873 - Necessary but not Sufficient
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Donald Catto said:
Determinism is what makes an RTOS an RTOS.

I have to disagree. An RTOS needs to be deterministic I agree but but that is not sufficient to make it an RTOS. Indeed it is easy to write a deterministic program but that does not make it an RTOS.
