-Latest Version:
+Versions of QNX 4 were released between 1990 and 1997. QNX 4.24 was used as the origin of QNX/Neutrino. Future versions (except for 4.25) are based on the QNX/Neutrino fork.
 == QNX 6 ==
-Latest Version: 6.5.0
+Versions of QNX 6 were released between 2001 and 2014, based on the QNX/Neutrino fork. Neutrino added support for [[MIPS]], PowerPC, SH-4, and [[ARM]] CPU architectures.
 This should be what RIM has purchased for use in the Playbook tablet.
