So how would you envision that the Emacs OS should be structured/used?

  Something like this: sudo aptitude purge emacs sudo apt-get install vim gvim gvim Edit: Clearly I'm joking. If you wanted a serious answer, Emacs is just a large, easily extensible program. It's not really an OS. That's like saying Google Chrome (contains a package manager, web browser, text editor, scripting language, and much more) is an OS.

    You have heard of Chromebooks, right? It wouldn't be a far stretch to imagine a developer laptop where Emacs was the entire interface.

      Chrome OS runs on a Linux kernel. Linux is the core OS for Chromebooks. Similarly, an "Emacs OS" would need a real OS underneath it.

        Emeacs is an OS. It just needs its own kernel.
