I wrote the first link, and made an error. Then Darran corrected me.
Minix is older than linux, but Minix never was really Open Source until some month
ago. Minix has or at least had quite a big user-base, nevertheless.
Minix comes in both 16-bit and 32-bit versions.
ELKS actually is not that much used. I would doubt that ELKS has any real
_user_ that uses ELKS as a tool for something.
(And I don't mean as tutoring tool or such.)
