The Hummingbirds is a tiny but incredibly powerful and fast operating system. It requires only a few megabytes of disk space and 12 MB of RAM to run, but it has a rich set of applications that include a word processor, image viewer, graphics editor, web browser and over 30 exciting games.
It also has full support for FAT12/16/32 file systems, as well as read-only support for NTFS, exFAT, ISO9660 and Ext2/3/4. It has an extensive set of drivers for popular sound, network and graphics cards.
Have you ever dreamed of a system that boots up in less than a few seconds from power-on to the graphical user interface? Applications that launch instantly, right after clicking an icon, without annoying hourglass indicators?
This speed is achieved because the core parts of KolibriOS (kernel and drivers) are written entirely in FASM assembly language!
Try KolibriOS and compare it to major operating systems like Windows and Linux.
KolibriOS has been a fork of MenuetOS since 2004 and has been under independent development since then.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
