A lightweight, fast, and fun operating system built from scratch.
SoOS (pronounced "so-oh-ess") is a free, lightweight operating system built on a custom Linux kernel. It was designed to be simple, fast, and fun — with everything you need and nothing you don't.
SoOS comes pre-installed with a web browser, file manager, text editor, media player, chat client, email, and more. Plus our exclusive desktop companion: CubeyPET! NEW!
CubeyPET is an interactive desktop companion that lives on your screen! He talks, plays games, tells jokes, sings songs, and he LOVES painting! Cubey comes pre-installed with every copy of SoOS.

SoOS is compatible with most x86 hardware. Tested on Dell, HP, Lenovo, and custom builds.
SoOS was not built by anyone. There is no team. There was never a team. This operating system appeared on a hard drive and no one knows who made it.
These people do not exist. No one made SoOS. No one remembers making it.
