Subject: Indian Challenging Bill gates
Be proud......Breaking news!!! Bill gates Challenged by an Indian!!!


Just one INDIAN is challenging against Bill gates...... This is not
only ground breaking news; it's space-breaking news indeed. Fwd it to as
many Indians as possible.

Ramlal Bhagat, a XII std. student from Haryana, has developed a 32-bit
operating system demonstrated to be far superior to any of the desktop
operating systems in the market today. The program has been named
"O-Yes".
O-Yes provides operating system services on any Pentium-based Personal
computer (PC) and does not require MS- DOS as a base operating system.

The operating system's capabilities were demonstrated in a student
convention at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), New Delhi. HCL
Ltd.
conducted benchmarks on the system and published results, which are
partly reported here: O -Yes is 34% faster than Microsoft's Windows 95 on
similar hardware.

It is 29% faster than IBM's OS/2. O-Yes loads 54% quicker than Windows
95 or OS/2. O-Yes has a customizable, user-friendly graphical User
Interface (GUI), in which every program can be accessed with a maximum of two button clicks. The operating sys tem provides plug n play capability with numerous hardware devices. It has a superior memory management
function.

The operating system is compatible with Windows 95 & WindowsNT4.0.

HCL, Ltd. has offered an unknown amount to Ramlal Bhagat for purchasing
the rights to the software. Ramlal Bhagat, described as" quiet and
philosophical" by his peers, was not available for comment.

Suresh Reddy, spokesman for HCL Ltd., said, "This is the operating
system that the world has been waiting for". On HCL's move to purchase the rights to the software, he said,

"We are here to ensure that Mr.Ramlal gets fair recognition and
compensation for his innovation. HCL Ltd. Can provide him a firm
launch-pad to market software globally".

Is this the beginning of the end of the Bill Gates' monopoly? Let's
see...



but when i googled it...... i found that it was a fake.....

lol
If one person could develop an whole OS, it would be mind blowing. I don't think it's humanly possible for one person alone to develop an OS , forget about a one that can compete with major OS'es of today.

Linux was not developed by Linus Tovrald alone!! Tovrald wrote the most of the
Components of the O.S other than the Kernel. The kernel was written by some
experienced Developer. Later he combined both these & made it into a working
Linux.

Nah he just wrote a part of the kernel. He has many people working along with him to develop the kernel. And GNU softwares run on top of the Linux kernel to make a GNU/Linux system. And Linus has always openly told that.
Linus only takes care of maintaining the kernel and acts as the overseer of kernel development.

That too, it was a slight adaptation of a previous project, called minix. That's why Linus + minix = linux.

Is it? AFAIK, linus has totally denied that he's had a peep into the code of Minix. Anyways this it off-topic.

Also acheiving binary compatibility with Windows isn't possible without looking at the source code. So, again one more reason this can't be true.
