There's no right way to do it, only ideas that are better than others in certain situations. But if you had the opportunity to head up the design of a new OS, one to Put Things Right, one that could be radical enough to varnish out those UI/X bumps that have clung on for years, but practical enough to be used every day, what would you design? How would you handle application management? What about file types and compatibility? Where would you cherry pick the best bits from other OSes and where would you throw away tradition? I've tackled this challenge for myself and present (an unfinished idea): KrocOS (warning: HTML5 site, will display without CSS in IE/older browsers). OSnews Asks: What would make your perfect OS?

If you would care to describe any way in which this is ridiculous I would be fascinated to hear it.
If you can't see how lumping commercial software with the term "evil" into the same bucket as Hitler, Nazis, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, etc is ridiculous, then you must have been dropped on your head as a child. Either that, or you somehow managed to get to this point without gaining an ounce of perspective on life & reality.

That is amazing dude. People who say stuff like that shouldn't be ignored, they should be mocked first for being so ridicules.
