I like the idea!

Is it to be some kind of command line-based thing, or will it be functionally more similar to the Classic Mac OS (i.e., more graphical)?

Having something Classic-like with preemptive multitasking, protected memory, and support for more modern applications and peripherals would be incredibly excellent. Perhaps these could be incorporated in a modular fashion, so they can be added or subtracted depending on the needs of the user?

Good luck! I hope you accomplish your goal!!

Thank you.

I though about having Mac OS 9 styled GUI but I wonder if Apple wouldn't sue me for that, seeing all these patent troll stories that wouldn't surprise me.

Mac OS 9's GUI is one of my preferred but I settled for Enlightenment's look & feel.
