You know the old saying; if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Is this a personal project? Are you going to have any serious down town moving between the two kernel bases?

I know I'm going to be unpopular for this one: Linux isn't a good operating system for all embedded needs. We're swapping out some of our main product lines from Linux (macrokernel) to smaller and more efficient microkernels.

That is great that it stops you from hitting someone else, but what about a car that protects you from the other idiots on the road not willing to shell out for a volvo?
