Good review if you are a fan of BeOS.

Which can be read as "music to a BeOS fanatic's ears". More circle-jerking from the BeOS folks, whose only allies are themselves.

Seriously, the BeOS user community has dwindled such that only the rabid remain. Everyone else went off to use an OS which solves the problems BeOS first half-addressed (and you're lying if you say that BeOS has a hand-up on OS X, or even WinXP).
