I still live in dream world where revtech found the missing source code behind a filing cabinet and compiled a 32bit protected mode version.

I had the same discussion with a good friend (also a developer) today.
If you ignore all but the Basic+ interpreter in OI 4.13 you're just about there. The LH filing system is way superior to the old ROS / LNK system.

I'd like to have seen a sort of hybrid between the two. Basically, it would work like LH, except the OV portion of the file would simply be appended to the end of the LK. That way there are no synchronization problems with backups, etc.

Years ago, and I don't remember when, there was a copy of G2B floating around that used LH from Arev 1.x. Didn't make the light of day as I recall. I saw it demo'd down in Stamford, if memory serves.

Happy New Year to all
