For those wanting visual proof that it was in fact
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SolarOS 4.0.1
here you go. I pulled this image straight from the trailer. I've outlined where it says the OS.

I'm more annoyed that the 8 turned into a smiley face, so I assumed it wasn't a question and my eye just skipped the line without seeing it. Am I the only one who did that? Just curious.

I have a few more to read....man a lot of people got the what OS version question wrong... I know it was a hard one....IMDB is the best place for answers
LOL! I'm on e of those ones that used IMDB trivia for the answer! I hope since mlinsley used it, both the IMDB answer and the screenshot answer are accepted.
I don't know a damn thing about computers -- I don't even balance my checkbook at work -- I have an abacus back home for that! ; )

GOOODMORNING Everyone! Well this is a hard decision to make, and out of the 30 I came down to 2. Remember I didn't make a decision just on the correct answers but on the open questions I gave also. Some people were confused about the OS question don't worry about it, back when I said look at IMDB I was just giving it as an "example" to where you can find some of the answers not just the OS answer. So any ways.....
THE FINAL TWO ARE!!!!!!

Funny enough, I actually had a screenshot I had taken from back when the trailer was first released, and just went to that. Didn't occur to me to chEck imdb.
Anyone else surprised it isn't running FlynnOS?

YEEEAAAAAAYYYY I would give my left nut...ok maybe not, but I would be so willing that I would say that I would give my left nut...then I would drive to the hospital to donate my left nut...I would be so willing that I would sit in a waiting room for hours just to see the doctor to give up my left nut...then I would get up when my name is called and go into my room...then I would put on the gown and wait for the doctor...and as soon as he or she came into the room I would greet them...then when they pull out the needle to sedate me so they could remove my left nut I would chicken out and run away crying like a little girl...
That's how willing I would be.

Meh, I got the OS wrong. But seriously, I didn't have time to research yesterday to get the correct answer.
So all of my answers were quick off the top of my head.
Besides, I never really liked the "Why do you deserve to win" question. I know it's a necessary one, and most would just make some joke out of it or simply say "Because I'm cool". I'm no good at coming up with an answer to that because I'd assume most people here are more deserving than I am
