"And, besides, unlike Matt, I have run cassette-tape based operating systems so I can pull geek seniority rank over him. Just call me Sid Dabster. Before jumping into my own list, I should say up-front that not all these systems are dead, or really even obsolete. My first two, OS/2 and NeXTStep, actually live on in evolved versions. 1) OS/2 Warp - Put aside all the fan-boy ranting about it was the greatest thing since TOPS-20-and if you get that reference, congratulations you really are a fellow operating system geek-OS/2 really was a great, solid 32-bit operating system., when everything else running on a PC was 16-bits."
