Didn't Microsoft make an experimental kernel with managed code?
- reginaldo 14y agoIndeed. It is the Singularity Research OS.

- zobzu 14y agoNote that managed code is just one feature of Singularity. They have many other important concepts (like SIPs). Plan9 ain't bad either. There's also different C# clones (that aren't based on Singularity)
- zurn 14y agoI wonder if SIPs are new or did eg the various Java OSes or the Burroughs ALGOL based system do something similar?
- jstclair 14y agoIIRC, though you write in a managed language, it's jitted at install time so it doesn't run under a managed runtime.
