QNX is a well-known RTOS that's quite popular. It's basically real-time 
Unixish. It's very portable.

At this point, such special systems are fading out, because even stuff as 
small as your phone is capable of running Linux.  Back when "embedded" meant 
8K ROM 1K RAM, it wasn't reasonable to have anything close to Linux on such 
chips.
