Re: How important is Linux?

I'm still hard pressed to see how utilizing a RTOS increases complexity in programming. With multiple layers of abstraction, we can create a system that makes it extremely easy for novice programmers to get their bot up and running. In addition this allows more experienced developers to innovate beyond anything we could accomplish now, all without slow hardware interfaces.
