You are HP-UX. You're still strong despite the passage of time. Though few understand you, those who do love you deeply and appreciate you."><br>Which OS are You?

Lol, I have worked with it in the past.

Funny thing is I really like Palm OS, and I'm still rocking the Palm Centro after 5 years. I'd still have my original Palm Pilot had I not left it on the roof of my car that day...

It is a work in progress (not at all useful now). Google it, as far as I understand it is an attempt to replace Linux in GNU/Linux and make a GNU-only OS.

Well, then it fits me just fine....
An unfinished, work in progress, and not complete.

A tremendous work has been done during the last few years:

Quote

The GNU system (also called GNU/Hurd) is completely self-contained (you can compile all parts of it using GNU itself). You can run several instances of the Hurd in parallel, and debug even critical servers in one Hurd instance with gdb running on another Hurd instance. You can run the X window system, applications that use it, and advanced server applications like the Apache webserver.

On the negative side, the support for character devices (like sound cards) and other hardware is mostly missing. Although the POSIX interface is provided, some additional interfaces like POSIX shared memory or semaphores are still under development.

I've got several palm devices in a box. Used them for many years. They probably still work but the obsolete cables and sync software prevent them from doing anything useful. I was very annoyed when Palm folded but got over it quickly when Android came out.

As for this quiz, not even close for me. It said Windows something and I haven't done Windows in over a decade.
