No, BeOS is not dead as many will speed to the forums and proclaim. YellowTAB's Zeta is the true inheritor of BeOS 5's fortune, as it is based directly on Dano/EXP's codeline (which was supposed to be BeOS 6 but was never finished as Be sold its IP to Palm). At last, I got my hands on Zeta Beta-5a, and here is what I found and think of it so far. You might need to have some experience with BeOS in order to follow this article, but screenshots are included to make it easier for everyone.

"2. There is _stil_ no support for more than 90 Hz in the monitor panel. In fact, the current screen panel doesn't expose all the abilities of the driver and app_server. Be was thinking of moving to GTF, but Palm bought them before that happens."
What is GTF?
Generally it is great to see a new release of "BeOS" - and being ßeta, I am sure that most of the kinks will be ironed out before an actual release.
Are sliding tabs supported?
