[MLB-WIRELESS] Wireless Operating System (NOS can run on a 386!!! Full feature NOS is 801k)

[Joseph Sirucka]

Currently developing my own embedded unit, like to know what the price 
of the software is.

Still won't be small, since it using pc standard hardware.

but definitely impressed by its features, pity you need wondows.
