Holy imminent operating system release, Batman!

Three things worth knowing:

1. Saturday, October 31st is the last day to get your name into the LCOS About Window by picking up a Lifetime Lunduke Journal Subscription.

2. Saturday, October 31st is also the last day when Lifetime Subscriptions are massively discounted. (Crazy, how those two dates line up! What a coincidence!)

3. Sunday, November 1st is the official release date for LCOS 1.0!

Want your name in the About window for the Lunduke Computer Operating System 1.0? You’ve got about 3 days left to make it happen!

Here’s what to do:

1. Go to this page and pick up a Lifetime Subscription (aka “One Time Contribution with Lots of Perks”).

2. Within a few hours, you’ll receive a confirmation email from yours truly with all the details.

3. Reply to that email with how you want your name displayed in the LCOS 1.0 About Window (nick name, first name, or full name are all aok).

Just be sure complete step 3 before midnight (Central Time) on Saturday, October 31st so it definitely makes it onto the final LCOS 1.0 build! My advice? Do this by Friday, October 30th so there’s no chance you miss it!

Huge thank you to everyone who has been supporting The Lunduke Journal and LCOS! You make all of this possible!

A release date has officially been selected!

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) 1.0 will ship on November 1st… just two weeks from now!

A few quick tidbits worth mentioning:

• If you would like to help test the final Beta releases on your own hardware, grab the latest ISO from Lunduke.com. Report any issues on GitHub, the Lunduke Forum, or via X direct message.

• Want to do even more to help out? Grab a “pay what you want” Lifetime Subscription and get your name in the “About This Computer” window inside LCOS 1.0! These funds go directly towards hardware testing and other expenses.

Worth repeating: If you want your name in the LCOS About Window (see the screenshot below), you only have through October 31st to grab a Lifetime Subscription to The Lunduke Journal and make that happen.

Huge thank you to everyone who has contributed with both hardware testing and financial support. We’ve had absolutely tremendous momentum over the last few months, and that wouldn’t have been possible without all of you.

The Lunduke Computer Operating System (LCOS) is flying towards the official, 1.0 release — with version 0.9.3 now available for testing!

Between now and 1.0, LCOS is laser focused on a) fixing bugs and b) making sure it runs (and runs well) on as much hardware as possible.

Right now, LCOS needs your help. Here’s how:

1. Test the latest LCOS release on your hardware. Hit any snags? Report them on GitHub, the Lunduke Forum, or via DM on X.

2. Donate to LCOS (and The Lunduke Journal), so that we can expand our hardware testing lab (among other expenses).

If you haven’t already, watch the LCOS Roadmap video, to get an idea for where we’re heading (in 1.0 and beyond).

Then check out this page, for details on how to support LCOS & The Lunduke Journal (and get your name on the LCOS 1.0 About window in the process).

A huge thank you to everyone who has already contributed (in both ways)! With your help, we are making LCOS into the best gosh darned system in all the land.
