Streetwalrus, is an OS considered a "large project" that OOP would be good for? A lot of people think C++ isn't good for an OS, that C is better.

No because an OS is a bunch of components interacting together, so a bunch of small projects. Only oop would make the use of C++ legit IMO. But there is a twist : if a particular component requires it then it can be written in another language. Because they are all distinct it's not a problem.

That seems like a pretty solid point to me. Not sure if we should continue derailing this thread, though :P
I'm not a nerd but I pretend:
