Graphics on the page?  Who cares :)
Now, instead of the graphics, the page should have more info:
Is opendos a 32-bit operating system?
Does it offer DMPI services (is it a dpmi server)?
Caldera must have some info on the end product!  Like:  How much disk space
would it take!
Lack of this sort of info on the page makes me suspect that it is vapor
ware :)
For example:
The page mentions that it will take 4 commercial compilers and some other
things to compile the sources!
Why are they trying to scare people from asking or anticipating the
sources!
Let us be porfessional:
Even if it takes 25 commercial compilers, just state what these compilers
are!
Make this info available instead of looking for someone to design graphics
for the page!
Oh, well!
Maan
