Do you guys know about QNX, a single-floppy OS that lets you browse the web in GUI format? I tried it last year, and was astounded. It really works: you can get on the web like normal. To run the OS, you need to download, and install it to just a single 1.44MB floppy...then reboot from that floppy.

They have just come out with version 4, which includes a network version. The URL:

 From their site: "Companies around the world are using QNX technology to build everything from consumer
appliances to automotive systems. Find out more in our Real World applications."
