- reconnecting - 6542 sekunder sedanI believe I run MenuetOS once over decade years ago. Now it's 26 years old since its first release. I can only be jealous of such stamina and wish it prosperous years ahead.
Has it had any commercial success?

KolibriOS (https://kolibrios.org/en) is an active fork of the open source 32-bit version.
- p4bl0 - 6852 sekunder sedanI remember stumbling uppon Menuet when it was still 32 bits only, (probably around 2006?). I tried it, booting from an actual floppy disk at the time. Nowadays, I don't even know where I would find a computer that still has a floppy disk drive. Time flies.
