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.

Thank you Ville Turjanmaa, the Creator of MenuetOS! You did better than I did. I wire-wrapped a 68000 system 20 years ago, built dual ported video ram display, wrote an operating system out of assembly, and got stuck in the middle of a basic compiler. Now I study Buddhism. It is very similar - take the truth as far as it goes. Sometimes the way to life is to dig in and go for it! Love is waiting all who enter.. www.dyad.org
