I will just say BIG TIME, Nitros9 is still the easiest to build, but a boot/kernel editor is lacking. I try to use kwikgen as much as possible, but I still have to resort to os9gen at times.

We seem to spend all our time building boot disks as if this is the sole purpose of OS-9. Maybe I just don't know enough about OS-9 but that's also what let's me see "above-the-cloud" to clearly identify the weak areas of OS-9 from a users perspective.
