ArcaOS sounds amazing:

"classic OS/2 productivity, word processing, spreadsheet, or  
graphics applications? OS/2, Windows 3.1, or DOS games.."

"Do you have a system with 16GB of RAM in it? Want your apps to  
really fly? Configure ArcaOS to utilize all memory above 4GB as  
a RAM disk, and at bootup, copy your most frequently used  
applications there"

It truly sounds like an OS that can do everything.

$129 for the basic OS isn't too bad.

The name Arca Noae seems odd to me.  I know that the arca noae  
is literally the Noah's Ark shell (a bivalve mollusc), but WHY  
would that be the inspiration for naming a product/company?
