What would be the point of freedos ? Might as well be another Linux distro

    Hi All,

    First of all, thank you all very very much for your support :)
    Indeed, i have to follow the whole thread as Eric said
    Also, all tips are very valuable and Eduardo even provided a real
    project to start :P

    Well, i prefer to be low profile/humble to not create much
    expectations
    also because i'm mainly used to java/python which is way different
    from c
    and i have no experience with asm so, i'll have a long learning curve


    Thank You Very Much and Kind Regards,
