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.).
