Lucius's post below reminds me of the time when a 6502 8bit cpu did
multiple windows with wordwrap and mouse, both descrete and timeslice
multiprocessing, and ran basic language,,, all with under 64K of ram. And
the restricted goto was wonderful, i wrote it: i could goto :labels or the
contents of variables. Lack of sequences wasn't a problem, since i indexed
each var anyhow. If it weren't for the lack of a upgrade to the cpu, with the
memory and harddrives of today's puters, i'd still be using that codebase.
The whole OS would fit several times over into the cpu cache of a modern
cpu. So why isn't anyone else using the olde OSs?
