Beos

What is Beos?


1.

An opperating system created in the early to mid 90's that was vastly supperior to many OS's currently. It's unfortunate demise was spelled out by poor driver support and lack of funding.

It now lives on only in verious open source projects and some offhand Palm workshop.

I wanted to convert to BeOS, but it died before truly reaching usable status.

2.

Unlike Linux, BeOS was a REAL operating system which was stable, fast, and booted up within 20 seconds. The OS had fairly good hardware support, was easy to navigate, had programs that were easy to install, and had a good amount of multimedia tools. It would have been a perfect alternative to Windowshad the BeOS executives decided not to try in vain to sue Microsoftand ultimately bankrupt themselves.

Oh well.

I use BeOS simply because it's the OS!
