... for offworld bacteria or virii to be of any harm to life on this planet? I mean we are talking about organisms that were not designed to infect anything here. Bacteria and virii are very specific in what they can infect and how they infect. Would Martian organisms have the capability to live here when they were not designed to be able to infect organisms that they have never been in contact with. Yes adaptation is possible, but quickly enough for said organisms to survive?
What killed Corel was an ill advised purchase of WordPerfect from Novell. Add to that the hundreds of millions of dollars Corel wasted on R&D for their network computer that never saw the light of day, the bungled Linux launch that never got off the ground, and what has got to be one ofthe most expensive support staffs on the planet to deal with the ridiculous number of bugs (they put MS to shame in the show stopping bugs that make it to release dept.) and the downfall of Corel was all but written on the wall. Corel needs to distance themselves from the poor decisions of Michael Cowpland and reconcentrate on what they got famous for, Corel Draw and the core suite of graphics applications.
So do it like this: Install FreeBe on your C: drive. Once it is installed, run it. This is a fully working copy of Be, including the DriveSetup application. Therefore that shiny, empty partition you have been saving can be formatted as a BFS partition. Once you have done this, simply copy all of the Be files from your C: drive to the BFS volume. Finally, drop to the Terminal and run Bootman, which will install the Be boot manager. You now should be able to choose which OS you want at startup, Windows or BeOS, with BeOS running in it's own partition. finally, delete the Be "file" from you Windows volume. Hope this helps.
