This is a little off topic, but I recently read about an interesting OS written by one guy that has full graphical support. He wrote it completely in assembly, and claims that was the only language that would allow him to write such a system and still fit on a 1.44MB floopy disk :eek:

Relevant to the topic or not, I thought you guys might find it as interesting as I did.
