I think that this just squeaks in as being on topic.
I am looking for suggestions for an operating system for a PC, specs 75
MHZ Pentium, 16 MB Ram, 4 GB HD, currently running PC-DOS Ver 7.
Original IBM PC-DOS right out of the factory sealed box. I am thinking
about putting GEM on the machine, maybe CP/M-86. Thought about GEOS,
but rejected it, too closed.
Specs seem too tight for Linux or BSD, or at least little advantage over
DOS or CP/M.
Anyone have experience with an operating system that might work, and be
capable of useful work?
