Star Syllable - The Little OS with a Big Future
Linked by Michael Saunders on Mon 2nd Aug 2004 18:21 UTC
Syllable, AtheOS Tired of endless Windows security problems? Intrigued by Linux's power but discouraged by its complexity? Tempted by Mac OS but not thrilled with the hardware cost? If so, you might want to investigate the growing bunch of hobbyist OSes -- Syllable, SkyOS, Haiku, MenuetOS, Visopsys, ReactOS and others. Syllable is perhaps the most promising of them all; it's a maturing open source desktop OS with an evolving kernel & device driver range, and is targeted at the home/small-office user.

some OS will replace windows

i can't wait to see windows die, the worthless POS that it is. it's great to see all these new OS's coming out. if BeOS had survived i'd be running that, and the OSS rewrites of beos are just no where, so i've written them off.

so bring on the new generation! both SkyOS and Syllable look promising, welcome guys!

and just to bring up my own personal interest: midi and digital audio. does either OS have any goals (like beos did) of becoming a multimedia workstation? cos the one that does is the one for me.
