68K/OS was a computer operating system developed by GST Computer Systems for the Sinclair QL microcomputer. It was commissioned by Sinclair Research in February 1983. However, after the official launch of the QL in January 1984, 68K/OS was rejected, and production QLs shipped with Sinclair's own Qdos operating system. GST later released 68K/OS as an alternative to Qdos, in the form of an EPROM expansion card, and also planned to use it on single-board computers based on the QL's hardware. The operating system was developed by Chris Scheybeler, Tim Ward, Howard Chalkley and others.

| - 68K/OS was a computer operating system developed by GST Computer Systems for the Sinclair QL microcomputer. It was commissioned by Sinclair Research in February 1983. However, after the official launch of the QL in January 1984, 68K/OS was rejected, and production QLs shipped with Sinclair's own Qdos operating system. GST later released 68K/OS as an alternative to Qdos, in the form of an EPROM expansion card, and also planned to use it on single-board computers based on the QL's hardware. The operating system was developed by Chris Scheybeler, Tim Ward, Howard Chalkley and others. The few ROM cards that were made mean that surviving examples now fetch a high price: On Feb 04, 2010 one sold for £310 on eBay. (en)
- Il 68K/OS è un sistema operativo sviluppato da GST Computer Systems per il personal computer Sinclair QL. Nonostante fosse stato commissionato direttamente da Sinclair Research agli inizi del 1983 e fosse stato annunciato come presente nel computer al momento del lancio, quando il QL comparve sul mercato, nel gennaio del 1984, il 68K/OS era stato sostituito da un nuovo sistema operativo sviluppato direttamente da Sinclair, il Qdos. GST pubblicò poi il 68K/OS come alternativa al Qdos sotto forma di scheda di espansione, prevedendo di usarlo anche come sistema su un computer basato sull'hardware del QL. Il 68K/OS è un sistema operativo multitasking e multi-finestra: non integra un interprete BASIC né un'interfaccia a riga di comando, bensì una shell testuale con menù e finestre denominata "ADAM". Le schede ROM che furono prodotte sono oggi ricercate dai collezionisti: il 4 febbraio 2010 una di esse è stata venduta su eBay per 376€. (it)
