1. Of the options considered, only Linux 2.4 with RTAI meets the latency requirements for a real-time 100-Hz control system
2. Only Linux 2.4 with RTAI provides what could be considered deterministic interrupt response times and task switch times
3. Linux 2.6 is the next best option for real-time control
4. The results for Linux 2.4 with LXRT indicate that LXRT can not be used for hard real-time systems
5. Linux 2.4 can not be used for hard real-time systems

3. Linux 2.6 is the next best option for real-time control

Anybody tested the smp stuff? Working good? Perfomance experience?
Whats is the differecne between the mozilla browser (not suite!) and firefox?
