Of course. On "Lithium" I have a 1 MB partition for Native Oberon.
But think about this: suppose Oberon would have caught on and Windows
would have taken he place of OS/2, then we would still be using 386
class machines with 2 MB of RAM and 20 MB harddisks. No need for TB
disks, GHz octocore cpu's and GB's of RAM.
Oberon was too good to guarantee progress in silicon....
