Here is a quick video of MenuetOS in action running in VMWare. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a webbrowser that was featured on screenshots. Nevertheless, enjoy ^_^

What it is:
MenuetOS is an Operating System in development for the PC written entirely in 32/64bit assembly language, and released under License. It supports 64 and 32 bit x86 assembly programming for smaller, faster and less resource hungry applications.

Is it supposed to look like ass? I mean, for the layman, ...is this an Os that has a very specialized use and not one which is meant to replace Windows or Linux?

[NerveBand]

See its just a hobby OS really. Its just for testing and seeing how far an Operating System can be pushed. It is a great tech demo to try out though. Its not for replacing linux or windows but rather embedded devices and stuff. Of course at its current state, its beta so bugs here and there.

I recommend you read the website and check it out for yourself in QEMU, Vmware, Bochs, or just natively.

If I'm not mistaken, this OS was written in Assembly with the FASM, correct?

If only some driver genius would get it to assimilate graphics drivers made for Window$ it would take over as a PC game platform. Especially since Vista completely sucks. Assembly Language rocks.

@khoraski Did you tried Solaris or OpenSolaris? Hm they're both Unix

[khoraski]

@RetroCopS Haiku. It's an OS based around FreeBSD.

[RetroCopS]

@khoraski Well have you tried FreeBSD or writing your own?

[khoraski]

@RetroCopS I just want to use an OS that's not Mac, Windows, or Linux. I have Haiku on my PC, but I need to hook up to LAN to get on the internet .

[RetroCopS]

@khoraski lol. why do you want to use this os anyways?

[khoraski]

@RetroCopS WiFi isn't through a cable. I don't have a cable, if it is not WiFi compatible then it is not internet compatible for me. 

[RetroCopS]

@khoraski Well I thought it worked through a cable. Maybe I am wrong...

[khoraski]

@RetroCopS how? i can't find a freakin WiFi thing anywhere.

[RetroCopS]

@khoraski it can!

[khoraski]

if only it could connect to the internet
