Kinda agree (to a point) --

It would be great to see another operating system on X86 based platforms --
I have no love of MS -- and am tired of seeing everything feel  that  there is a Binary Choice (MS vs Unix/Linux)

Q is, the 68xxx codebase would still need emulation to run the  other classic base of software and the development effort would still need to be there for applications.   Sigh-- in a perfect world ....


BTW:   Anyone else catch this --
Sun Microsystems is planning on Making Solaris 10  Open Source  --  wahoo  (can't wait to see if we can port a UAE to x86 running Solaris 10)
