    To demonstrate the OS’s capability and relatively small size, in the late 1990s QNX released a demo image that included the POSIX-compliant QNX 4 OS, a full graphical user interface, graphical text editor, TCP/IP networking, web browser and web server that all fit on a bootable 1.44 MB floppy disk for the 386 PC. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/QNX

      Every demoparty in the link you mentioned with a beginning date and a dash but no end date is still happening. The demoscene is still very much alive.

        Oh yes! And I didn’t intend to say it is dead! I merely wanted to point to the fact that these guys did and do incredible things in the 64kb class.

    This is pretty awesome and it shows how far .NET has come in recent years.

      Is this supposed to be small or am I missing something? 400kb for hello world does not really sound small
