Agreed -- it's major overkill. What's not clear to me, and what I've
been trying to figure out, is whether it's more appropriate to take
something like Linux and strip it until you have what you need, or
to just take the ideas from it and write it from scratch.
BTW, I found a web site after my own heart today: http://www.unix-vs-nt.org
The Kirch Paper (first link on the site) makes interesting reading.
