Not all of their customers "buy" this. PikeOS is a different league.
It's a microkernel-based full virtualisation of Linux, just like Jaluna,
Integrity, or what they are all called. It has its very specific
application domain (nothing comes for free, you know...). And you have
to consider that its proprietary software by vendor X - not really
popular anymore. :)

But ElinOS also has RTAI support, I know some of its users. One told me
that they will not migrate to Xenomai before Sysgo supports it -
political decision.

Not officially, but I talked to them twice at some fairs, and they
confirmed to work on it. For me it appears logical when looking at their
board portfolio and given that RTAI is practically bound to x86 now.
