I downloaded the free version of QNX Realtime Platform today. What a piece of shit. :) It allegedly supports all of my hardware, but the only thing to actualy work is my video. Network, Sound, USB, and more all fail to work. The GUI is pretty nasty, also…..

I had always had a negative impression of QNX after hearing other developer’s horror stories. I at least had hoped that the OS was fun to use if it sucked to code for. I don’t know why this OS would ever get used on anything but low-level embedded stuff.
