You're not really supposed to love an operating system. It's like your car's hydraulic system, your digestive system or the global financial system. It's supposed to do its job -- and not get in your way while you're doing yours. But like your car, your guts and the economy, computers are more complicated than they seem. And so are our feelings about them. As the tech community gears up to celebrate Unix's 40th birthday this summer, one thing is clear: People do love operating systems. They rely on them, get exasperated by them and live with their little foibles. If that's not the basis of a lasting love, I don't know what is. | ||

LDOS for the TRS-80. This was a powerhouse OS for it's time.
I wonder what ever happened to Lobo Systems? Those guys were GOOD! Another name I can remember from the time is Big 5 Software. This was a group of kids that learned assembly coding on the Z80 and turned out some of the best games ever written for a computer, even the TRS-80 and it's graphics with pixels the size of a pencil eraser. My god, they have a web page LOL http://www.bigfivesoftware.com/index.asp |
