With freeBASIC, you could make a browser and a decent FPS.
I've seen OS's, so it doesn't seem too crazy.
They are GUI's (Graphical User Interfaces), not real OSes.

It's not hard to make it run the same speed on all computers: DEF SEG = 0 POKE (1132), 0 CountDown: IF PEEK(1132) < time% THEN GOTO CountDown D...
