Do you know about the "soft" realtime scheduling policy of Linux ?
I think it may improve the performance of "realtime" software.
Anyway you're right, Linux (without the rt/linux patch) isn't a realtime
os, for that, get qnx.

Hem, not agree here.
Ever tried to do "two" things at realtime ? dos can't handle two tasks,
Windos can't handle neither of them while linux does both the best that
you can get (at least in the few cases I've tried, mostly moving things
between floppy disks and playing midi with a realtime view of notes played
in linux while just playing the midi in windows stopped the music every
moment).
