TempleOS

TempleOS has two main features. Ring-0-only and no paging. (It's identity mapped because long mode requires it.)

Linux and Windows have ring 3 and paging.

In simstructure I had a default element type. I recorded differences from the default.

TempleOS has LZW compression. http://www.templeos.org/Wb/Kernel/Compress.html#l1

To me abstraction above the hardware is like condoms. Some people say "Use three condoms, its better".

I don't want a literal C64 -- just the complete open simple access... but 64-bit and 3Ghz and multicored.

I don't want it to run on a 386, just x86_64.

VGA has 6-bits of color.

FC FC FC is the max

when converting to 24-bit, what do you do?
