Oh, is it a desktop-only OS? No embedded device / server capabilities? These two worked out for Linux...


Its sucessor, Inferno, has been bougth by Vita Nuova and they target it at embedded devices.

Very interesting, thanks. From the descriptions, the architecture looks kickass. Looks like an ultimate device driver toolkit.


No it's both a server and a desktop OS. The architecture semi-requires the ability to be both cooked in. In my usecase I have my terminals which are desktops that boot off of my main fileserver.
