I've thought about this, myself. Almost any new OS wants to work like Unix.
What I'd like to see is a community effort to make a new OS that does what
needs to be done without worrying about being compatible with something that
currently exists. Start off with a list of all the good things in different
operating systems, then implement them in a way that works well. Sure, it
may not have a lot of software available, but so what? The fun will be in
developing something that is well-designed, well-implemented, and solid.
