Yeah, I might be just re-inventing the wheel here, who knows? But I had this (original? I doubt it) idea a few months ago and I was meant to write about it for some time now. So, my idea is about creating a new operating system that is like none of the current ones. It would be so different, that porting applications from other "traditional" systems wouldn't be possible. But the gains would be much more important of what we would lose by implementing a brand new new system.

I believe that many changes will have to be done in the kernel of such an existing OS to have it working the way described in the article. It is possible, but it won't be as "pure" when trying to implement it on top of an existing OS. It will hit limitations that they wouldn't naturally be there, if the whole architecture was thought out and implemented from scratch.
