... one of the differences between a microprocessor and a microcontroller.

A microprocessor is not designed for fast reaction to external stimuli (Windows/Linux both process (the result of) interrupts "when they get around to it"

A microcontroller is designed for fast reaction to external stimuli (when a pulse comes, get it (fully) processed bfore the next pulse)
