Lecture by Jim Mitchell. The video was recorded in June 1990. Is it a worthwhile pursuit to develop a new operating system architecture, one whose native application interface is different than any other currently successful system? This talk argues that we ought to be pursuing exactly this goal. It also presents requirements for success, and a description of recent work towards it.
