Alternatives? While I somewhat agree with some points presented in the article, the POSIX model is beautiful in its simplicity. As a good demonstration, just take a look at Zeal 8-bit OS. It has a simplistic, Unix-inspired API [1], which is very elegant, especially considering the fact that the OS targets Z80 CPU with just 64 kB of RAM.
