What is your fav operating system, other than UNIX?
Linux
>>53096322
Ubuntu, debian, fedora?
>>53096348
Linux is a kernel dufus
>>53096437
it's also an OS
>>53096322
Gentoo, Arch & FreeBSD
>>53096322
>Not running Linux kernel 4.1.15 with skynet patches.

>>53096322
Skynet
>>53096461
I tried pC-bcd, i like the bsd community.
>>53096483
I think they run DOS. it was a 1984 movie.. soo.
>>53096322
Windows, that's what we real professionals use. Gaming and industry program support as well. Linux loosers wish they were relevant.

>>53096499
commercial reasons. they should make all games on linux...
>>53096515
I quite like OSX, running linux virtually.
>>53096322
Hard to decide between Spring, EROS and Multics.
>>53096322
Linux
>>53096322
I don't understand. Why ask for an opinion then cut out the only viable answer worth giving?
>>53096720
Because UNIX a shit.
>>53096361
All pretty much the same thing. But you're right that whatever it is, it isn't unix.
ReactOS
>>53096322
windows followed by linux
>>53096322
Linux
>>53096322
Plan 9
>>53097505
what is it 1992?
>>53097409
Who is the Hero Linus or Dennis Ritchie?
>>53097586
Neither.
windows 7
>>53097746
They peaked at Win7, there will never be a better Windows OS!!
>>53096494
More probably a unix derivative on the mainframe, the DOS systems looked like they where running CP/M.
>>53096441
it's not.
GNU
OS/2 Warp
>>53096499
do people really appreciate Windows?? It's a fucking clusterfuck non-POSIX shit.
>>53096322
CP/M, it's nice and simple. Ditto with the hardware it runs on.
>>53099459
so essentially bsd?
>>53100303
No, CP/M was basically the ancestor of DOS, for 8-bit 8080 and Z-80 based microcomputers. Its filesystem didn't even have sub-directories, so all files were stored in the root of A: or B: floppy drives (which couldn't hold much data anyway). There was a CP/M "USER" command for people that bought hard disk (very expensive, and really just for businesses in those days), which acted as a work-around and limited your visibility to files for the given user number. But it was just a hack really, and all files were still stored in the root of C: drive.
Anyway, almost everyone used just floppy disks those days. It was nice and simple. You could have a boot disk with CP/M and WordStar (or other program, like SuperCalc, MBASIC, etc.) in A: drive, and then save your data files on B: drive. You could have as many OS/boot disks as needed, and rebooting only took a few seconds.
Later they made other versions of CP/M for 16-bit CPUs, but I didn't use those ones. The 8-bit machines were super-simple and great for learning BASIC and assembly language on.

>only viable answer
you wish
he cut it out because one of you trolls was bound to claim that as a good OS
when it clearly is not
>>53101737
troll bait ;)
>>53098281
lmao is that the actual sign?
>>53103241
gnu if i know
>>53096322
OPENSTEP.
>>53103290
wow dubstep have their own OS?
>>53096322
I still love Vista, baby.
>>53096322
the terminator theme, was accidental. i just used what was in download folder.
>>53103368
but vista? i installed that shit on all the work computers. cuz screw them!
>>53096441
> Linux is an OS
lol good troll anon. You got us all there.
>>53098394
>mfw i have this
>>53096499
>that's what we real professionals use
kek
>>53104185
It'll be there for you... when the rain starts to pour and it crashes.
OpenBSD

Underrated post
>>53104549
Fuck You, Asshole! (flies buzzing)
>>53104581
...
>>53104138
find me something that says it's not
hardmode: no gnufag resources
templeOS
OpenVMS. The command line is superior to UNIX in every way, its memory management is better, and using it is much more pleasant.
bump for my personal amusement
>>53106247
>>53096322
NT 4 or System 7
>>53096322
How far away from UNIX does it have to be to not count as UNIX? Almost everything some UNIX in it these days.
Moebuntu
>>53104540
CP/M was in use well into the '80s, I've messed with it and I'm only 21
>>53096322
Gnu + linux
>>53107968
Well there's a difference between UNIX and UNIX-like. UNIX itself is trademarked and for an OS to be a UNIX OS, it has to follow the UNIX specification. That's why Solaris, AIX, BSD etc. are all UNIX OSes and Linux is a Unix-like OS.
>>53098667
No. They just don't know any better and can't install Gentoo.
As with all kinds of retards, they are the majority of users and they pretend they like what they are because everybody else is doing it.
>>53096322
I'd like to see a free version of TempleOS developed by an elite of devoted christfag coders into something usable. It has some cool features.
