Magnussoft has explained their side of the story concering the recent split between them and Bernd Korz and the Zeta development team. "The archived sales figures of Zeta were far below Magnussoft's expectations. Continuation of financing the project is economically no longer viable. For the time being, Magnussoft discontinued funding of the Zeta development team on March, 16th 2007. The exclusive distribution agreement will remain unaffected. The existing contract is valid until the end of 2007."

"BeOS deserved a better chance at success than it got; to be sure. However, an ugly UI with some usability issues, poor driver support, and some lame marketing killed it before it ever got off the ground, I think."
The GUI was ugly? Gee, I think it had the most elegant GUI I can think of. It was very clean, it was lean, it had many fine ideas, it was neatly woven together, its parts worked together like a charm, and - last but not least - it had a good set of beautiful icons.
