The #MenuetOS and #QNX boot floppies were really impressive, too. ;)

@markearnest May I recommend KolibriOS (for weekend fun)? Really impressive, super tiny and written entirely in x86 asm.

Another project that comes to mind is SymbOS – its main purpose was to demonstrate that an OS with "look & feel" of Windows 95 is possible to run on 8-bit (Z80) computers of the 1980s.

Screenshots of SymbOS running on Amstrad CPC are presented below.

Just curious, anyone daily-driving an OS other than Mac, Win, Linux, BSD, or Plan9?

Anyone bold enough for daily-driving #hpux, #aix, #aros, #morphos, #haiku, #qnx, #templeos (please, no), #MenuetOS / #KolibriOS, #ContikiOS, #RedoxOS or other? ;)

@brainofdane
It's so impressively tiny.

Reminds me a lot of #tomsrtbt and #MenuetOS
