Both QNX and NT provide a multi-processing environment for running programs. Unlike NT, QNX provides realtime capabilities. QNX needs much less disk space to run. This can be crutial if you are running an embedded system with expensive flash memory. In addition QNX provides context switching that is much faster than NT. QNX was created by a relatively small company near Ottawa Canada. NT was created by the software behemoth Microsoft in Redmond Washington.
