BeOS & Derivatives I have no idea how I missed it (seriously) but read this: "It's been almost one year since we announced our conversations with ACCESS Co. Ltd. targeted at releasing legacy BeOS related documents, and today last week we were happy to inform the community that this project has finally arrived to a happy conclusion: the BeBook and all the Be Newsletters are now available online. As an emerging open source project, documentation for Haiku is still hard to come by; and while our Documentation Team works on creating Haiku-specific material, the BeBook and the Be Newsletters will provide valuable reference material for all developers, new and experienced alike."

Have you been on OSNews long? BeOS (and Haiku) news has always been given importance here, and rightly so. I have no idea what your pet OS is, but I'm damn sure not going to slam it just to get a reaction, like you seem to be doing here. Please do us all a favor and crawl back under your bridge.

I still have a BeOS 5 Pro installation that I boot into every once in a while.

Then again, I also have an OS/2 box I use fulltime and I like Apple ][ games via Appler, so...

Seriously, though. If you can install it, it's still a nice OS. I managed to get a copy of Firefox 2.0.12 for it, *and* I managed to install it and get it to run, so the platform can't be all bad.
