really. Fun to mess with, and it has a really interesting thread/process
model and programming APIs. If you're interested in that sort of thing it
would be cool to play around with :)

I picked up a Cd and manuals for BeOS today.
Anybody here use it? What
do you think of it?
Works great on my BeBox. :)
BeOS is an oddity in OS circles. It's very much what you might expect
from OpenStep, sort of. Well, if you mixed OpenStep with a liberal dose
of multimedia. It's very strange, but in a very comforting way. :)
