[Discussion] The Incredible Shrinking Operating System

[Thomas Clayton]

Dear POSSI:

Early last week I bookmarked these 'articles' to send all of you notice of their existence and didn't do so - till now.

The original - I'd 'come across' the second one first - from InfoWorld.

Then at SlashDot there's a long list of commentary (which is what I saw first).

I think members of this list are interested in such things. Yes?

(Of course, "our" OS doesn't get, even, an 'honorable mention'. Oh well.)
