It was raised by prof. Wirth (the maker of Pascal), as an answer of many of your issues. Oberon is a language as well as an operating system. It was first designed for the Ceres workstation, (a hardware design based on the NS32032 microprocessor), but now is widely spread among many brands of processors. There are versions for the Intel processors, as a native OS or as a guest of Windows. The focus of Oberon is the reuse of code. It takes seconds to compile the complete OS. I'ts worth to take a glimpse of it. Jesus.
