HAY GUYS

The one thing I would DEFINITELY drop is the universal software compliance idea. That would be an INSANE amount of bloat and slowdown that's absolutely unnecessary. I also agree that GUI should be completely seperate from kernel and am incredibly amused by everyone who wants a "3D" interface. Do you just want one that looks cool, or can you really think of some way a 3D interface could be easier or more convienient than a 2D one? It's not as simple as say "make me a 3D interface" - it has to be GOOD for something.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's been under development for 16 YEARS and hasn't yet reached the functionality of MS-DOS. Kill it for God's sake. And it was roughly designed as a UNIX derivant except with a microkernel instead of a macrokernel anyhow.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

is struggeling [sic] with ... hardware support

I'm always sick of hearing this. You do realize that the Linux kernel supports a HELL of a lot more hardware than Windows ever has?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

OS X is UNIX-based.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

You could, you know, look in the comments for the Video and all.

I was speaking idiomatically.
