The voice, the man, the... machine. That's George Hoffman for you. According to people who have worked with him (including my husband) he is one of the brightest Be, Inc. engineers ever. These days, George works at PalmSource, Inc. as the Director of Applications and Services. In his free time he sings with an (a cappella) vocal band of 4, Hookslide (check out their .wmv promo video clip)! In this interview we talk about PalmOS 6, aka Cobalt. We discuss the architecture of the OS, its capabilities, its market targets and more. Screenshots of Cobalt are included.

When last I talked with him (many moons ago) George was responsible for the OpenGL port on BeOS. Back in the day, as it were.
O yeah I do remember now, I did see some amazing rotating teapots when the hardware acceleration worked, only to be broken by the next bone update.
