Why is there Pepsi?
Coke Cola Classic has been the world best selling soft drink for over a decade and probably longe
People who want a Cola like drink prefer Coke.
Or even any other soft drinks than Cola derivates.
They sell the most by far.
Why does Dr Pepper exist? Or Club-Mate? Or Tøyen Cola.
There is a concept called competition.
People believe it drives innovation.
There is also nice to have variety and being able to pick
something you like the best form a selection.
A single operating system dominating the entire world from
PDP11 --> entirely is a bleak dystopia.
WindowsNT was lightyears ahead of Linux kernel when it come out.
Async everything from the start. Better protection for hardware.
Easily portable. x66, PowerPC, Alpha, Mips
Able to run win32, OS/2 and a posix layer that could be extended into
other adventures.
Also the most modern operating out there in wide use.
It sadly has retrograded over time.
Both WindowsNT, Linux and BSD are all unsuited for the world we live in now.
I can't wait until some sharp minds are able to create the next generation operating system.
It is taking far too long.
I loved the time of competition and variety
Atari TOS/GEM, MSDos, VAX, OS2, OS/400, Sintran, Mac OS (System 1.0 -->), AmigaOS, WindowsNT, many flavours of UNIX, Sinclair BASIC
Those are just alternate operating systemsI have used myself over a life.
I want far more flavours, ideas, alternatives out there, not less.
