Re: You guys are NUTS !
Well, it's a given that if this were to become a reality, the system
would have to diverge. So eventually compatibility would not be as
important as it would in the beginning.
Primary concern here is the ability to grow and expand in both the
hardware and software. I like GS/OS. It is a very simple design which
other GUI systems should take a lesson from. Yet I would like to see
some improvements, for instance, a little more leniency with filenames.
I would like them to be longer and accept a broader range of characters.
I think 'virtual memory' should be used also, and maybe multi-tasking
interrupt signal.
Someone mentioned the programmable CPU which was what I had on my
mind at the time. I would also like to see PCI slots.
With the FST method which GS/OS uses, GB drives are already a fact.
Unfortunately, it is still limited. But I suppose you meant P8. In
which case it would have to be completely re-written, too much trouble
IMHO.
