This is interesting to note for me after quite a few years hanging around here and mega-tokyo.com.

The Pype.Clicker.

He is pretty darn talented I say. I figure there are better out there, but credit is due where credit is deserved honestly. Quite a mark he leaves even if only for a handful of operating system development hobbyist.

I always liked the, "guru meditation" bit. I still laugh when I think about it.

One might say he was the most talented one here. That is, for leaving osdev. His conclusion from his clicker website:
and i don't see the use to continue fighting with an architecture that sounds completely doomed from the start by the devils of backward-compatibility.
To come to such a conclusion is probably the smartest thing to do. :P

I wasn't here when OSdev.org/forum was on MegaTokyo.
Who really is PypeClicker? (Yes, a human.)

No, not sarcasm. I was mentioning his point about the x86 architecture being doomed from the start.

By the by, How could that be sarcasm?
