Ahm, the final name can wait off course... It takes about 5 years
to develop a working OS, and another 5 years to get it pretty powerful and

Unix is great. I like text-mode sometimes, but I normally use X (with text

I'm not at home in Swedish. Never been in Sweden actually. I know off
course Ducth,French and Engilsh, but my languages don't stretch any
further... Should learn German and Spanish some time.
