I am one of those remaining BeOS addicts. I love the BeOS' responsiveness, its short boot-up/shutdown times and its, well, overall feel. But no one can deny the fact: BeOS 5.0.x PE is getting old. Very old, with a kernel build-time of around May 2000.

JPS: True enough...but I'm referring to projects like PhOS that admittedly use leaked code. In this day and age, it is somewhat boggling that Palm would not approach the developer regarding the legal status of the code being used. Personally, I'm all for keeping BeOS alive in any and all forms possible, but from a strictly business perspective, Palm's inactivity is odd.
