We can draw attention to interesting bits, like this page: http://www.templeos.org/Wb/Accts/TS/Wb2/TempleOS.html

Reading the usesthis page, I was intrigued by the fact the author uses Windows. Actually he tweeted about switching to Linux a few days ago: https://twitter.com/TempleOS/status/461423615582298112

I find also interesting that someone writing an OS is prevented running it natively by Secure-Boot.

He's reiterated that in a (dead) comment on this post:

> Yeah, I did. Now, I use Linux. Normally stuff like this launched me into an existential crisis. "Oh, God, the stress! Why God!? My world has a MAJOR thing to worry about -- misleading people maybe or something like that."

> I'm not quite as much a coward. I think I had good reason. Cowardess is not a virtue. God loved King David.

>Damn, I look awful. Oh well. I've become a freak hermit-- don't know how to smile, anymore.

He said the problem was "legacy PS/2 keyboard/mouse emulation", that's why he can't run TempleOS natively. The Secure-Boot reference is more related to dual-booting I think.
