-  Caution: {\em commercial} doesn't mean {\em proprietary!}
-  \begin{itemize}
-  \item Vendors play fair with the GPL and do make their source code
-    available to their users, and most of the time, eventually to the
-    community.
-    \begin{itemize}
-    \item As long as they distribute the sources to their users, the
-      GPL doesn't require vendors to share their sources with any
-      third party.
-    \end{itemize}
-  \item Graphical toolkits developed by the vendors are usually
-    proprietary, trying to make it easier to create and embedded Linux
-    systems.
-  \item Major players: Wind River, Montavista, TimeSys

-    \item Technical advantages
-      \begin{itemize}
-      \item Well tested and supported kernel and tool versions
-      \item Often supporting patches not supported by the
-        mainline kernel yet (example: real-time patches)
-      \end{itemize}
-    \item Complete development tool sets: kernels, toolchains,
-      utilities, binaries for impressive lists of target platforms
-    \item Integrated utilities for automatic kernel image, initramfs
-      and filesystem generation.

-    \item Development tools available on multiple platforms: GNU /

-    \item Support services
-      \begin{itemize}
-      \item Useful if you don't have your own support resources
-      \item Long term support commitment, even for versions considered
-        as obsolete by the community, but not by your users!

-  {\bf Commercial distributions and tool sets}
-  \begin{itemize}
-  \item Best if you don't have your own support resources and have a
-    sufficient budget
-  \item Help focusing on your primary job: making an embedded device.
-  \item You can even subcontract driver development to the vendor
-  \end{itemize}
-  {\bf Community distributions and tools}
-  \begin{itemize}
-  \item Best if you are on a tight budget
-  \item Best if you are willing to build your own embedded Linux
-    expertise, investigate issues by yourselves, and train your own
-    support resources.
-  \end{itemize}
-  In any case, your products are based on Free Software!
