Title: Fresh Operating Systems to Play With
Post by ReeBop on Mar 10th, 2004, 3:41pm
I just wanted to mention a couple of operating systems that get very little notice.  The first being AROS (http://www.aros.org).  This strives to be a working Amiga type of system that can be hosted on Linux or, more excitingly, on it's own.  The big thing needed now is a working TCP/IP stack.  Then, it's ready for prime time.  The second being Syllable.  This system is far along the development line, with a complete TCP/IP stack and now a IDE environment ported from BeOS.  From what I read, the big hangup with this system was full support for the IDE bus.  
As I catch up on work at home, I'll devote some time and harddrive space to these and some other better known OS's such as BeOS and QNX.
