> LNG is an operationg system primarly for the good old Commodore64 home-computer. There also is a native version for the successor Commodore128. Ports to other 6502/6510 driven 8Bit Computers are possible but not yet started. LUnix started in 1993 and reached the internet in 1994.
That is old-school cool.
I'm not sure how practical it actually is, but I did play with it in an emulator and it's pretty impressive for what it is. I mean, the C64 really should not be capable of preemptive multitasking, but they somehow pulled it off.
It's extremely slow, which isn't surprising, but I still think it's pretty neat.
