                I can't believe I'm still going on about V2_OS …
                                        
Since I have a PC (Personal Computer) capable of running V2_OS, [1] and it
has a harddrive that I don't care if it gets trashed, I decided to give it a
try.

It does load fairly quickly. And it does appear to be quite slick. And I do
like the different screens you can flip through:

* Terminal screen, which gives you a simple monitor.
* Module screen, which would (if there were any) list all the modules loaded
  into the system.
* Bootup screen, which shows you the boot messages.
* Debug screen, which modules or programs can use to dump diagnostic messages
  to.
* Crash screen, which gives a register dump in case of a fatal error.

Nothing that any other operating system can't do, but it is nice to see stuff
like that.

But for all that, it's still pretty much a rather poor 32-bit clone of MS-
DOS.
