For the love of God, WHY THE HELL would you EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER consider using ANY product even REMOTELY related to Windows for Industrial Control Systems?????? THIS is not some anti-microsoft rant mind you- its simply that Industrial Control Systems DO NOT USE consumer operating systems but rather HARD REAL TIME OPERATING SYSTEMS. If you do not know what the word "Deterministic" means in relation to Embedded Computing, you should go look it up first. There is a process known as Verification whereby every goddamn functional unit and every goddamn line of code is mathematically proven, is rigorously tested in some kind of Unit Testing Verification Harness software, and you simply would not slap some Windows or even normal Linux on an Industrial Control System. If you have an Industrial Control System using ACTIVEfuckingX you are probably dealing with a developer who is not actually an embedded systems developer, but rather a lazy idiot. Ciao
