I would like to see some standardization, I want all OS to support the same
set of api calls so that the OS is like the x86 platform, bunch of people
making different systems that can all run the same programs. But I want
native calls, not some stupid VDM crap. DOS based Windows and NT supported
the same set so I know it's possible.
