Well an assignment for school is to name 100 different operating systems, they can be for anything, desktop, server, handheld etc. The only thing is each one must be different; Windows 98 counts but you can't have Windows 98 and Windows 98 SE, only one version of the OS.

There's a bunch of linux distros, if they'll count those.

Other than that, good luck. Possibly use the ones for gaming systems?

What about Linux distros? They are very different then versions. Sort of like Netscape is to Firefox.

Different distros are accepted, but you can't use Redhat 9, Redhat 8, just Redhat.

Would Windows98 be accepted along with Linux and OS X? Or do all those count as desktop/server operating systems?
