Show HN: Oberon System 3 runs natively on Raspberry Pi 3 (with ready SD card)

Oh, this is something I'm going to have to try. Excellent work!

I have to ask, since people who'd know will probably be here, what's the "ten thousand foot view" of Oberon today? I'm aware of the lineage from Pascal/Modula, and that it was a full OS written entirely in Oberon, sort of akin to a Smalltalk or Lisp machine image. What confuses me is the later work on Oberon seems to be something of a cross between a managed runtime like Java or dot net, and the Inferno OS, where it can both run hosted or "natively". Whenever I've skimmed the wikipedia or web pages I've been a bit confused.

The Oberon user interface inspired Acme on Plan 9.

Oberon is a very nice, fun and cozy system and environment for programming. I lived in it for a few months back around 2010 and it was a joy.

This is great! I remember running System 3 on a 386 back when MS-DOS was king.

Thank you, I've never heard of the Oberon os before.

So good to see Oberon this accessible! Mad props!

I still hope to see the world where Oberon is the future (and present) of OS and programming language design, and I know very little about it.

Thanks to your work, that's about to change.

Thank you times a thousand <3
