- The project labels results as real-laptop, virtual-machine, Linux-prototype, in-progress, or planned.
Field notes
The page separates results by where they ran, including a real laptop, a virtual machine, and a Linux prototype, and marks other work as in progress or planned. It reports a 402 ms loader-to-kernel-console time on a real laptop and says the kernel is under 5 MB; these are project-reported figures, not independently verified in the supplied evidence. The interface also includes a launch-date guessing prompt and an accessibility panel.
