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.

I must say, I am glad I'm an OSNews regular. I expected that this site would be the first or one of the first to report on Zeta, and was not mistaken.
Excellent review. Do you know if the same font rendering engine that PhOS used is here? that one seemed much better than Dano. Overall, a lot of these issues PhOS FIXED! For example, I got a routing 120 fps with my i810. Maybe looncraz left after all.
