[edit] PortixOS

PortixOS (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

This article has no references and asserts no claim to notability. Since the only external link is a direct link to the PortixOS website, this article looks to be nothing more than an advertisement, rather than an objective article. The lack of 3rd party (or any for that matter) citations only helps enforce this viewpoint. Googling PortixOS brings up this wikipedia article second, then the official website first. The other links appear to be forum postings, developer lists and unrelated pages. None of the links help assert the subjects notability. Android Mouse 21:00, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete it before I add an entry about my hobbyist operating system kernel. JulesH 17:07, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Do as you wish. I do not have much time to update the site + new version of OS, so it is a bit outdated. JulesH, at least respect the amateurs please,because forking a open source OS and declaring a new name for it is a LOT easier than building your own kernel: Tinfoil Hat Linux,Tomsrtbt and NASLite are another modified Linux clones. Only DexOS,MenuetOS and my OS are having it's own kernel from scratch and that is tougher and will take a longer time to be a real OS. But what should be special and so notable about an OS site?... That's all, the discussion can be closed and Wiki has one user gone from it. But what is an one mediocre user away from a big community? Nothing,no one cares. Inflater
