> Blackberry OS & Playbook, used one of best ones called QNX Neutrino
Unfortunately, the devices Blackberry created didn't sell enough and now they're trying to be another Android manufacturer. It's sad, but a kernel alone doesn't make a user facing device.

How so? Do you mean the half-hearted attempts by Intel like their trasactional memory extensions or mpx? The B-5000 was great for writing implementations for GC'ed languages.
- nickpsecurity 10y agoHere it is: http://conservancy.umn.edu/bitstream/handle/11299/133439/oh405rrs.pdf;sequence=1 http://conservancy.umn.edu/bitstream/handle/11299/133439/oh4... re Burroughs I'm not going to spoil it. What I will say is that most thought Schell and Karger invented the security stuff with Anderson of Anderson Report being some suit or manager. We also thought Burroughs stuff happened in parallel, but separate, from what led to Orange Book and Intel security extensions. I always thought Burroughs B5000 tech was too good to be isolated in history. We also thought businesses, as often said, saw no value in real INFOSEC and instead wanted checkboxes. Interview will counter all of that. I especially liked learning how the first, certified system and demonstrator, the SCOMP, was built. All this time I thought government funded it out of a belief in INFOSEC. Wrong again with another surprising answer. Enjoy the 150 pages haha.
