Slax and OpenSuse are distributions of the same operating system and are not two different operating systems.

After several weeks your articles are still not aligned right in Safari on Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Looks pretty ugly.

Good list though.

good to see reactOS getting a mention.

@dennis: these are not all unix based. ReactOS is a free software version of windows, Haiku is based on BeOS, freeDOS is based on DOS. You obviously only looked at the first two.

If alternative OSes are your thing you might also want to check out:
- AROS the free open source amiga clone: http://aros.sourceforge.net/
- Plan 9 from bell labs: http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/
- BSD – the unix-like (not unix clone) os on whic mac osX is based: http://www.freebsd.org/
