OSNews, Generic OSes "The HelenOS project is an effort to develop a complete and usable modern operating system, yet offering room for experimenting and research. HelenOS uses its own microkernel written from scratch and supports SMP, multitasking and multithreading on both 32-bit and 64-bit, little-endian and big-endian processor architectures, among wich are AMD64/EM64T (x86-64), ARM, IA-32, IA-64 (Itanium), 32-bit MIPS, 32-bit PowerPC, SPARC V9 and Xen 3.0. Thanks to the relatively high number of supported architectures and suitable design, HelenOS is extremely-well portable."

hell, im using pidgin (formerly gaim) as the im client on my 770. the same im client thats part of the gnome desktop iirc. to me that shows the power of open source, and the moldabillity of the linux "ecosystem".


Although perhaps it's molded a little too much.
