Subject: Re: VRTX multi-tasking system

Although I have'nt used VRTX I have heard good things about it and it has
been out for some time so the chances that they have alot of users are good
and it probably is robust. When I inquired about it the price was a little
high for my tastes (in January it is going up in price ~$5000 for z80 version).
And for orders of less than 100 about $50 licensing fee for each unit the OS
is running in. Another possibility is MTOS. About the same initial price but
no licensing fee and source for the entire OS is given. I got a complete manual
set from the manufacturer and it looks quite good. It does support multiple
processors for the 8085, 68000, 8086 versions also.

                                                       Cheers
