An operating system is an essential piece of software that every computer uses to control its base functions. Most of us are familiar with Windows, macOS, and/or Linux, but there are some so obscure that most watching will see them first hand. For example, did you know Microsoft released a copy of Windows for Legacy PCs? Or that Apple simply slapped the Platinum look and feel on NeXTstep, and callled it Mac OS X Server 1.0?
In this video, we're going to install five operating systems that are so obscure, you've probably never heard of them before. They are, in order:
* Dell UNIX - gunkies.org/wiki/Dell_UNIX)
* Windows for Legacy PCs - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows...
* Mac OS X Server 1.0 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_...
* Sprite - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprite_...)
* Windows 11 for ARM
* COS

@@sundhaug92 "The Last Starfighter" computer graphics were made by a company called Digital Productions, who also worked on "2010" and "Labyrinth". They were bought out in 1986 by a company which went bankrupt in 1987, so heaven knows what became of their intellectual property after that. I can discover only that they did it all in FORTRAN, which given the state of the art at the time is not surprising.

Windows FLP is not actually the final release of the Windows XP codebase, that would be Windows XP Embedded POSReady 2009. That release actually got patches longer than plain XP did, so many people applied a registry hack to convince Windows Update they’re on that version.

This is my "SunPCi" equivalent for office and accounting work, I never got along with more modern office releases with the ribbon UI, nor I could migrate to other office tools - the best I have is google sheets, but for DOC files I need a total control over the creation process (not that it has no bugs, but I know all the quirks by now - no surprises and pulling my hair). The rendering is decent, using MacType on it. The Firefox is a bit struggling with modern sites though.

Not too sure if you know this but Apple did release beta versions of Mac OS X Server under the name Rhapsody that not only supported PowerPC but also x86 computers too. iirc it's one of the only times Apple made an operating system for typical desktop computers and pre dates Apple's transition to Intel processors by around 5 years.

Whenever you have a tape in hand that was created on a UNIX machine, you can safely assume it has been created with TAR, the Tape ARchiver. So, the only thing you need to do in theory is to read it with a TAR program on any platform (provided of course, you have a tape drive that can read the tape and you have drivers for that tape drive on some host OS). I used TAR even on OS/2 for making backups. Tape drives were also common on MS-DOS.

SUPER-UX and its cousin ESOS are likely to be lost to history. SUPER-UX was a UNIX variant used on NEC's SX line of vector supercomputers up until Linux was adopted. ESOS was the operating system for the Earth Simulator and the Earth Simulator 2. Many older Cray systems- and this included the CDC 6600 and 7600- ran the operating system in the I/O processors to allow the main processor to be free to work on computing tasks. This was also true of many CDC CYBER systems.

Microsoft has actually started to offer prebuilt ARM ISOs for MSDN subscribers. The 23H2 IoT Enterprise image (which allows either Enterprise or IoT Enterprise to be installed) is available and works fine under Parallels. I believe I've heard there's another program Microsoft has that has offered ARM images (beyond Insider), but only used MSDN myself. Of course as other commenters have noted Parallels has streamlined the process of installing from public sources for awhile now so mostly just trivia that the ISOs exist.

I actually have used the Windows 11 for ARM64 on my Mac machine. It’s definitely hard to install if you choose UTM, but I elected to use Parallels instead, because it’s actually a supported way of running it. The performance is genuinely not bad, and I now own a unique Windows 11 Pro for ARM64 product key. Additionally, Parallels fully automates the annoying download and install process for you, making the installation completely painless. Regarding the experience: it’s not bad! Performance is acceptable, but I haven’t the opportunity to test any unusual apps on it. The x86 compatibility layer is much better too, since it finally supports 64 bit apps. Overall: 6/10. Pretty good experience running Windows only apps on my M1 Pro MacBook.
