Embedded computer life cycle
After
a embedded computer's life-cycle analysis and the “sticker shock” associated with the cost of a
commercial OS, designers usually also consider “free” open source operating
systems. Although open source software eliminates some initial cost problems,
there are still significant issues that must be addressed. One problem voiced
by potential open source users is the lack of a central embedded computer resource to provide support
similar to a commercial software vendor. Developers can often find answers to
their questions through the Internet, but no one is on the hook to research and
respond to a specific question. Open source products are generalized in order
to fit the widest array of users and can force designers to modify the hardware
configuration, resulting in higher recurring cost for the embedded device.

Thanks for education me about embedded computer. Many in the internet are now spreading about embedded computer but I do not know if which are the most important idea that really the most legit and real. Upon searching several times about this topic, I found this blog informative and I think this is the information that I want. The embedded panel PC life-cycle analysis considers a free open source operating system for developing a computer even though this software is eliminating some problem in initial cost to manufacture. Embedded computers are really needed in any business nowadays because it often built around small form factor motherboards and embedded computers can be installed in places where outdated towers would not fit. Solid state storage and flexible mounting options also allow embedded PCs to be utilized in virtually any position or orientation. This also have a low maintenance because of they build to protecting internal components from environmental damage from dust and above ground debris to extreme temperatures, moisture and vibration. That’s only the few importance of embedded computer.
