I'm pretty sure you're doing it wrong...
Imagine that you are hired to build a bridge over a river which gets slightly wider every day; sometimes it shrinks but nobody can predict when. Your client provides no concrete or steel, only timber and cut stone (but they won't tell you what kind). The coefficient of gravity changes randomly from hour to hour, as does the viscosity of air. Your only tools are a hacksaw, a chainsaw, a rubber mallet, and a length of rope. Welcome to my world. -Me explaining my job to an engineer

For two days the Lounge has been nothing but Chrome this and Chrome that. Chrome is not going to be the "Web OS" of the future, because I am already working on it[^]! Take that suckers! ;P

To be fair though, that $20-$100 OS has been brought up a fair number of times, so it's not exactly a new topic of conversation is it? ;P

There was a post the other day of some guy wanting to pay $20-100 for someone to write him a complete, secure OS, that had Windows XP-like features but not a rewrite of XP.

Doubtful. The potential coder should just write it himself and sell each copy for $100 - much more worth it. Regards, --Perspx
