When should I use Windows CE .NET rather than the Microsoft Windows XP Embedded operating system?
The Microsoft strategy is to offer a broad range of Windows-based, embedded-operating-system solutions to meet the diverse needs of customers. Ultimately, the design requirements of your device will determine the best platform to choose. Understanding the development focus of each operating system also may assist you in making this decision. • Choose Windows CE .NET for solutions requiring real-time, small-footprint, and multiple-processor support. • Choose Windows XP Embedded for solutions requiring the latest Windows technologies built on the x86 processor.
