    I think you guys forgot to add the best OS ever made. Lets you talk to god. Heres the link to the wiki page. Might want to check it out.

    I've heard of that. Interesting that it was actually functional and the author developed it in a fairly short time. According to Wikipedia, the author had schizophrenia. :/

    There is a documentary on youtube about it.

    I spent some time with TempleOS, trying to get to know it. It's a very weird OS, visually too busy, scattered. Sadly, Terry's mental illness is evident in its visual design.

    But it is also in some ways quite impressive, and at times, quite awe inspiring how one man not only made this, but how this OS is quite a different paradigm.

    It's been a while since I've used it, but in some ways, TempleOS encompasses what I'm talking about in this thread, a different model where the user can use the OS's parts to construct a larger system. TempleOS breaks down barriers that exist elsewhere. Hyperlinking is everywhere, everything interrelates and is interconnected. It's a bit Emacs'ish actually.

    ... A program is used to turn data into error messages.

    I also heard he made his own variant of the C programming language to write TempleOS in - it was called "Holy C".

    Yes, Holy C (Holy See), see, quite clever! You could also write code in 64 bit Assembler.

    The display was limited to a 640x480 resolution because that is how God wanted it.

    It;s very easy to get running in a Virtual Machine, its worth a look.
