The issue has always been market and potential revenue.  That is, products on
Linux have historically been free or cheap.  Thus the revenue potential has been
small.

What you say above is true.  Aonix has Unix RTS's and we have an Intel code
generator.  However it does take some effort to put the two together.  It is not
free.

Now that I've said all that, we are in the process or once again considering a
port to Linux.  Stay tuned for future word on this issue.
