re: Freddan303
Only two of the categories are still in the planning stages. And 6 are in Alpha or Beta stages. That sounds like progress to me. Glass half full or half empty...

re: James Frazer (In other news)
Great comparison (BeOS with Commodore 64), and not entirely inaccurate. I wonder how many BeOS users also have a couple of vintage machines laying about? My favorite is a TI99!
Good thing Microsoft never though of putting the OS in ROM! We'd be screwed then...

re: last ananymous post
Absolutely correct. Office is the standard for businesses, and therefore necessary for home users to be compatible. Perhaps OpenOffice could be ported?

Best Wishes,
