What was BeOS?

revisionist OS, based of all of the good stuff about unix, but none of the cruft...made for the "media professional"

Why BeOS said about the individual using the personal computer?

highly political example of something created to fulfill and ideal, not nessisarly used for that purpose.


What BeOS said about the technology at the time:

Brushes with success

Destroyed by wild beasts MICRO$$$ antitrust, apple not buying them
