Didn't Commodore DOS exist before 1982? I thought it existed with the PET. Haven't changed it since I am not 100% sure! :) (Chris Fletcher) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.182.91.94 (talk) 06:27, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Given that the "Other" column gives up so much to Amiga related OSs, I think it would be better to make a separate column for Amiga things. Personally though I would prefer it if they were simply removed and put on their own page where they can be ignored by everybody except those in the Amiga-enthusiast audience who are likely to be the only people interested in reading about it. Amiga spam is a galling feature of the Wikipedia computing pages. Vapourmile (talk) 10:05, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The first two entries look doubtful to me, as is the claim that Dyseac supported distributed computing. That leaves MIT's Tape Director of 1954 as probably the first OS. Dan Oom (talk) 12:01, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there no mention of Symbian OS? It was an evolution of EPOC32 and was one of the major components that started the smartphone revolution?
