Original OSNews Interviews Today we are hosting an interview with Ville Turjanmaa, the creator of the Menuet Operating System. Menuet is a new, 32-bit OS, it fits to a single floppy (along with 10 or so more applications that come as standard with the OS). It features protection for the memory and code, it has a GUI running at 16,7 million colors, sound at 44.1 khz stereo, easy of use and easy low level API. And the most important and notable feature? The whole OS was written in 100%, pure 32-bit x86 assembly code.

I LIKE TO SEE IT RUN ON SOME OTHER PLATFORMS, LIKE Z80 8051 ECT.. NOBODY HAS A GUI FOR SUCH SMALL 8 & 16BIT CONTROLLERS, IT WOULD BE A GERAT BANG IN THE ARM FOR THIS AREA OF CONTROLLERS , MOST OF THE CPUS ARE SOLD HERE IN THIS AREA FOR PORTABLE EQUIPMENT AND HANDHELD IT WOUND BE PREFECT TO PUT A PLATFORM WITH THIS .
