"Practically nobody runs VXWorks on x86/AMD64"

Well we do, but I must admit the restrictions were starting to hurt.

In the embedded space ARM is the way forward , but even AMD64 was looking tempting because Intel just don't have much in the low power embedded space., On some products such as their hypervisor windriver did not support AMD.

Being owned by Intel never made a lot of sense and severely restricted what windriver could support in terms of platform
