OSNews, Generic OSes We didn't have a Week in Review last week, and I'm sorry for that - I was swamped with other things (hence no podcast either last week, we did record one today). This past week saw news items on a wide variety of topics, ranging from Google fixing Internet Explorer to Linus calling Linux bloated.

Bloat is mostly caused by Linux developers "Nothing ever gets thrown away" attitude.

Who at this time and day needs 386 support built in the kernel?

if that attidute doesnt change, linux kernel will go past 1gb compiled in next five years
