Either way, if someone was to finish it then something cool may happen and we'd have an alternative to TIOS. As of now, its only good for running programs and cool thing, you won't need any kernel and you get to use nearly 240kb or ram. I guess someone who only uses their calc for games and some really basic math would find this OS beneficial but in general, its only good as a tech thing saying that this is possible rather than something all of us would actually find useful.
