none of these make a secret out of their OS, but it doesn't seem to be an advertising item, either. is it because people are generally disinterested in and/or frightened by the fact that their gear has to have some sort of operating system inside? i wonder if we'll live to see the day where "linux inside" is a hot marketing punchline.
perhaps a big selling point for embedded system gear is that it is just there, it is dedicated to a single purpose ... and bringing an OS into the picture blurs that distinction, it sounds too much like a general purpose computer running an application to the marketing department.
