The Sega Dreamcast is Windoze CE compatible. It even has the little Windoze CE emblem on the front. I'm not sure if it acutally runs the games with Windoze CE.
Dreamcast hardware is compatible with Windows CE, but there is no Windows software available for Dreamcast. Windows CE is automatically loaded from a game CD when the programmers need to use Windows functions. Windows CE also makes it easier for programmers to port PC games to Dreamcast

NetBSD can run on the Dreamcast. Those freaks ported it..
NetBSD- What the Hell can't it run on?

I can't say as to PS2's OS, but the PS2 dev kit is Linux all the way.
RH says that the PS/2 uses bits of RH. That makes me wonder- could PS/2 games be ported over to Indrema? If it ran an emulator like bleem it might possible to just pop in a PS/2 or PSX game and off you go. With all the Play Station titles it would make Indrema a more viable game console. This wouldn't really hurt Sony as the loose money on the hardware and make it on the games anyways. They probably would still put a fuss though for corporate pride.
