It looks pretty neat but it looks like Mac OS-Ecks. Why not make your own GUI.

That's cool. So far I like it more than windows.

Its looks really cool. But please, please do /not/ call it an operating system, it isnt and it never will be (unless you port the code to another language). Just call it a GUI and leave it at that.

Based on the interface, it looks like a nice gui. Time will tell if you've got solid functions and scripts behind it, but it looks like a nice start.
btw-- I'd optimize your code a little if that text in the boxes is displaying at maximum speed. It seems a little slow. Imagine scrolling a text document with each frame taking that long...

You are right wizardlife. I should optimize it but I just didn't have the time to do it because I wanted to release a demo yesterday and well I started coding a little late so the demo is a little raw...
I'm working on all the functions and other stuff at the moment so time will tell indeed....

I will but it'll take some time tough because this is only a very simple demo. :wink: There is no kernel or any thing like that involved in this program. So at this moment I'm working on some sort of kernel to make the gui solid and more powerfull...
Hey I'll tell you guys when it's fiished

I've got one question:
Do you want to make a OS or a GUI???

OS would be nice but I have read some articles about making you own OS and it seems like a very hard thing to do. Maybe I could make the computer boot and be able to use the floppy drive but I think that would be all for me. I think I will stick to the GUI idea
