       | Back in high school this was one of my first introductions to
       | assembly programming, compilers/linkers, and OS design. It
       | sparked my interest in what an operating system could be and was
       | small enough that someone could pick it up and learn about what
       | made the system tick. I recently emailed Mike and thanked him for
       | creating something that put me on the path to my PhD. He's a
       | super cool guy and a true tinker-er at heart. Really great
       | project.

         | something. Or maybe I'm confusing him for someone else

       | MikeOS! Great work Mike. Now get back to podcasting ... you were
       | great at that too!

         | I agree with this on both counts. It's rare to see a relatively
         | low profile project like MikeOS remain supported by the
         | original developer for so long. For Mike, this really is a
         | labour of love. And Mike was also a great podcaster and should
         | try getting the gang back together for a Christmas special.
         | With Pink Ponies, naturally.
