I've been wondering... Watch it... What underlying OS do the various glass panels (Avidyne, Garmin, etc.) use? It might actually make me think twice about buying a particular system if I knew that (for example) it was Windows underneath. The MX20 has Embedded NT. The GNS[4,5]30 has some Garmin specific stuff. No idea about the rest. I would think that the glass panel folks would be using one of the real-time OS's that are designed for industrial applications, but I don't know for a fact. I suspect a surprising number of these MFDish things run NT... -jav
