There is a difference between Software and Firmware ?

Yes, but it wasn't clear that the OP understood the distinction - hence the question.

Software doesnt RUNS in embedded hardware device , its firmware.

Not really - it is still correct (and common) to call it by the more general term "software".

"Firmware" is just a specific type of "software"



This link loudly and clearly states that:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firmware

I could make out he said software , and you feel he has a limited knowledge , not fair ?
