Re: Nixon Products
Lol?
You aren't able to build a computer...
I think writing your own OS is to hard for you too.
Sorry, but you have to know Assembly and much more!
What do you think: how many people are working very much time on things like Windows?!

Re: Nixon Products
I am not building the operating system, and are you mocking me? I built my own keyboard last year (it was bendable!)
I can just download the OS from moonOS.org too...
I have a ram, hard drive, graphics card,
sound card, and motherboard, fan processor, and more

Most Boot Programs are x86, so I guess that's right.
