Lockergnomie Eric Ose knows about a rather unique download that we
haven't featured in years; it's definitely worth checking out
again: “QNX is a full operating
system. It is not open source, but the makers are giving it away
in order to spur development. It is a UNIX OS which uses a
microkernel and has a beautiful and fast GUI (called photon). I
wanted to recommend it because of the ease of installation and the
speed of your system running under QNX. I installed it on Pentium
100Mhz and 200Mhz computers with as little as 16MB RAM; it runs
great and looks good, too. I came upon it when looking for a
Linux distro that worked well (GUI included) on old hardware.”
He's right - this thing is pretty nifty. If your home network has
a few older machines on it, grab the image and start surfing
faster. Is it perfect? Hey, the whole darn thing fits on a floppy.
It's perfect enough - especially if you're worried about roomies /
visitors / relatives messing with your system.
