 		 #130526 - Embedded RTOS
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard Erlacher said:

I see no real need for any sort of OS in an embedded environment, since the tasks are all well defined, the sequence of them is well defined, and they're small.


That's true if your embedded application is simple and small. I once wrote an RTOS for an embedded 68020 system--trust me, it was needed. But I agree there's not much point in having one in an 8052 system, and it would likely slow things down.
