Learn about Wings OS. It's a 16bit multitasking unix-like (QNX-like) OS written for the C64 and Scpu.

The link is here wings os for the c64 ...

@SilvrDrgn

It runs on the SuperCPU, a 16-bit CPU upgrade to the Commodore 64.

No offense to Commodore 64 lovers!

I hated that computer. The SID chip kept going out, it was crazy. It did have some great games though. Kind of a funny story. I had decided I would never buy another Commodore computer. So I went to Walden Software to get look at other computers they stocked at the time. There was an Amiga 500 next to a PC, and the Amiga 500 was displaying these great graphics with sound, and you know what the PC was doing (nothing much). I was like, what is this computer? And the salesman told me all about it, and then I saw the Commodore logo on the front of it. I told him about my disaster with the Commodore 64, and he told me, "It is not really a Commodore Computer, they bought the design from someone, it is much better!". So I bought it, and here I am.

However, it is still great to see a new OS for an older machine! I wish them luck with it.
