This is really little more than a novelty, but the hidden easter eggs make it worth a look if you're bored.
<more detailed review follows>
Airborne OS 2000 is one of many attempts by the MZX community to make a Windows-like OS for MZX. When it comes down to it, though, any "emulated" OS is practically useless unless there is an actual platform being emulated, like Basilisk II is to Apple Macintosh.
Airborne contains a few "mini" games, like ZZT 4.0, though these are only here to liven things up (ZZT only emulates the gameplay portion and doesn't let you edit things). It also has a program called "Potato" which is like a miniature trainer program that lets you set a single counter and swap worlds to whatever else is in the same directory.
Overall, Airborne is a cheap novelty that tries to be too many things at once (failing completely at all of them).
