RISC OS Peter Naulls, the RISC OS developer behind, among other things, the Firefox port for RISC OS, has published a list of things that are likely, or less-likely, to happen in the world of RISC OS in 2006. "I'll suggest some projects that are both plausible and possible in a relatively short space of time. Whether they will be carried out is another matter entirely, and nothing should be read into these that I or anyone else intends to carry them out. One prediction I will make right now is that I expect developer support to continue to wane in 2006, with an increasingly frustrating general RISC OS situation, which for the first time in a long time, has only a little to do with technical restrictions."

RISC OS is used quite widly in the UK. Don't forget that. RISC OS probably has more users in the UK alone than BeOS/Zeta has worldwide.

Especially (mostly) in education. Unfortunately, it's nigh on impossible to reach those users or leverage that user base. It's now stagnant.

Yes, my first experience with a computer was a Acorn system with RISC OS, and I still when can play with RISC OS, I think its a great Os, and brings back some child hood memories, reminds me of a time when i thought everything was simple and straight forward.
