Xsos 3

[m^2]

Is there any way to get XSOS 2 nowadays?
I found a torrent, but it seems nobody's seeding it.

I had quick question for nn_step...

I thought I read somewhere (XS forums) that XSOS 3 was going to be from server 08 and that MS was supporting this, by allowing those that at least own one license to legally install this. Now if I have a license for vista does this still entitle me to install/use XSOS 3 (legally) or do I need a server 08 license... or am I completely in left field here?

so I just slipstreamed sp3 to nn_steps v1 xp sp2 os, and spent the last few hours removing the services, drivers and other crap it added, followed by cleaning up a few other various things in Resource Tuner. Is this something worth posting somewhere nn_step?

I have it along with v2.02 and was archiving on my old server til I bought a new one (with nnsteps permission) I may start hosting it again, if I get the go ahead from nnstep

[Boogerlad]

do you happen to have xsos v1?

[infekt]

do you happen to have xsos v1?

I have every version that was ever released to the public, archived.

[ShadowGuy]

What's the quick rundown for all the versions? (ie. XSOS v2.02 - Win2K)

[karmeck]

Any news?

[[XC] riptide]

Yep.

Any news?

We are all hard at work, in our goal of making an operating system that provides the features and the performance that our users have come to expect.
Though some things are out of our hands (example Creative making crappy drivers and threatening suit for all those that fix it Or current patient law and lawyers standing in the way of the more advanced projects...)

Its sad to see that people put what little money they might earn in front of the progression of technology and the general advancement of humans.

Hope you guys are doing fine and getting plenty of rest.

While I have no knowledge of nn_steps progress on this, If he is building a linux/windows hybrid OS (or using singularity or midori code), what he and his team are doing is not trivial. This is an OS. Keep in mind that XP took nearly 4 years to write and Linux to get to where it is today took 15+ years to get to where it is now. nn is building an OS not taking nlite/vlite and making some cool tweaks to it.

I work at a company that designs and OS for one of it's products and can attest to how hard that is for an entire team to do. And then he has all the other legal issues to deal with and worry about, it is not an easy thing. Plus they are running on whatever budget they have.

I look in on the forums periodically. Hopefully it will be released soon. But hey we all have to wait. No sense in flaming if it is not finished and ready for possibly even beta testing.

You are absolutely correct, it is extremely difficult to make a highly usable operating system. In Fact we have been working on it for years...
As for legal issues, I highly doubt that Microsoft is going to sue Microsoft for making Microsoft's next generation products.

Actually more as it uses a lot of code from previous Windows versions.

Is their anyway at all your able to provide us with a worklog type-esque thing? to see where the progress of where your at at the moment say if you complete a big part of it/or fix an issue that alot of the closed beta's had etc,

as im sure that would put alot of the haters to sleep and would make us actually willing to recognize the effort you put into this be even more excited about the release
