SynOS vs Xenotype: Which is Better?
Go ahead, say witch scratch OS you think is better, and why.
Fun Facts About Each
• SynOS v1.0 was originally called "Clipix OS Micro"
• The only person to ever use the very first SynOS, was dsdude10. The file was over 30 MBs, so i remade it.
• The SynOS [2] had 3 different designs, only 1 came out of beta.
• The SynOS 4 had about 4, only 1 came out of beta.
• I thought of the name "Syn" when i was about 5 (Forgot what it was for though)
• Xenotype was originally based on the SynOS, but now its completely programmed by fg123
• The Name Xenotype was created by the user "greenflash"
So go on, say which you like better. (Not which user, which OS. Keep that in mind) No this isn't a poll.
SynOS 4.1 (ONLINE!!!!): http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/08jackt/869168
Xenpotype 7 Professional: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/fg123/812191

Re: SynOS vs Xenotype: Which is Better?
Tough choice. I have another fun fact: fg123 held a contest to name the OS... and I suggested xenotype, and it won! 
Yes, it's true.

They're both great... SynOS 5 has some neat looks, but you can do more with Xenotype.

Re: SynOS vs Xenotype: Which is Better?
I like both, but I prefer Xenotype... it has more of an in-depth feel; it's not just a bunch of applications.

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

true.
any ideas to make the SOS{5} more in-depth?
Folders or something. 
Ooh! How about lots of false code?

I'm not really a big Scratch OS Fan, but I'd have to say iSyn.
