Hmmm Apple DOS 3.1

Simple and primitive with a good understanding of the common man. You're still a work in progress but a good start.

Dont know wether to be happy or annoyed

I love one of the responses on the last question: If I end up Windows ME someone is going to be hurting.

That is soooo true!

OS X

You tend to be fasionable and clever despite being a bit transparent. Now that you've reached some stability you're expecting greater popularity

Well, I'm glad I'm not OS 8.5! Hey, at least I'm unix-based.

You are Windows 98!

You are a bit flaky but well liked. You don't have a great memory, but everyone seems to know you. A great person to hang out with and play games.

Well, all I can say is they got me sussed!!!

It's a great OS AND great machine. It came around during the late 80s if I'm not mistaken. Somebody told me it was suppose to replace the PCs but never did. According to that same person it had a SMP-like architecture in the sense that there is no central PU so the load was spread accros several chips (one for every task, not two).

I could be wrong but I don't feel like googling around.

I don't know what the hell I said, but I ended up as Debian.

Pretty damn telling, I think.

Joe -

You and I are in the same unfortunate boat m'friend.

I don't know whether I should go skulk in the corner or be happy I didn't come out of it as Win 3.11 or something.

I think the WORST part is that I RETOOK it and got OS/2 Warp AGAIN!

LOL
