I find this (and similar) opinions rather amazing.

Wasn't it the "pressure" of the customers which made Foxboro choose the 
M$ platform in the first place?

I can't help but stick to my opinion that porting the system to Solaris 
for Intel would have probably been a wiser move (porting would have been 
much more straightforward, cheap hardware, happy users, etc.).
