I'm totally shocked to see this empty.... but anywho.... Learn how to do what you want to do. This is a great jumping off point for that. Well designed and very close to home for many a dev. Don't like where modern tech is leading us? Then learn this stuff so you make a x86-compatible time machine, and then go back and fix it :D (hint: 1990-ish) MikeOS (heavily modified) serves as my primary desktop and development environment for going on ten years. PS: we needs more easter eggs :)__
