MenuetOS is notable for implementing an OS the proper' way: simple, efficient, fast and small. Other OS'es suffer from feature-mania, complexity (thus allowing security vulnerabilities) and legacy backward-compatibility. None of those drawbacks exist in Menuet. It has a graphical desktop, games, and networking capabilities (TCP/IP stack), and still fits on a single 1.44MB floppy disk. It is also the platform for relatively easy, full-featured assembly language programming in 2005 when assembly languages were considered usable mainly for old and embedded systems.

Just a few objective (in my opinion) phrases that I feel should be altered. Some could say that these phrases are fact, so I thought I'd make sure by asking a few others. Should be fairly quick to clean up and set straight though. 86.2.11.128 15:36, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
Would someone who is an expert on this subject please contribute to the Menuet entry on the AMD64 page? Thank you! Jeh 23:31, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm suggesting a split to the original MenuetOS and the new 64-bit MenuetOS. There are multiple reasons for this. Most importantly the other is free software, while the other is not. --Easyas12c 20:42, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
The later is a lie... Both are free if you don't believe download just go to the download page :-)
Would you split Windows into Windows x86 and Windows x64?
I say its fine the way it is, but it may make sence to have a seperate header for the 32bit version.
MenuetOS appears to have nothing to do with Minuet beyond that they have similar names and can both access the Internet.

That falls under the classification of a propietary license. I think that Wikipedia readers, who go to the link and don't know what to make of it, should instead be warned about it in the box, thus having "License: Propietary". --W2bh 17:52, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
