In my comment I was referring to mission critical systems, which most definitely you don't put on cheap commodity hardware you buy in a brick and mortar store.

Linux is used EVERYWHERE for a reason. Most car HUD now run on some form of Linux embedded, like basically all embedded and low power devices. The problem here is that people still put embedded mission critical systems on a desktop OS and slap desktop software on it, which is _a bad choice_.
