B) You're too stupid to get somebody else to grab you a copy and mail it to you,
C) You like wasting money by flying places just for a crappy beta,
D) You're insane if you love MacOS that much, or
E) You live in a land in the vicinity of Paris, France, and it is convenient to go to get a copy, in which case, you would need to disregard choices A, B, C, and D.
Oh reeaally....a REAL UI, huh? So REAL UIs look like they were built for children's computers and/or mall kiosks? Just go sit alone with your cube, and piss off.
It was my understanding, that the Cruose was to be a low power consumption chip. In all the hype, I never caught the wind of "blisteringly quick". Perhaps I missed that hype.
With all of this interesting talk of ARM performace, I am curious to know if this ARM architecture is capable of being used for the purpose of Symmetric Multiprocessing . Is there anybody that can offer insight to this question? It is neat to think that you could have an 8-processor system, that performs nicely, and gives off virtually no heat.
Okay, thank you. That was informative. Now, answer me this. If BeOS were to be fully multi-user, thusly breaking some binary compatibility for older versions, would it then be considered to be a UNIX?
I wonder if it is also fair to include other sprout OSs that are still very POSIX compliant, but less like UNIX. Just as an example.. BeOS. Where does one draw the line?
I would like to point out that the BeBox itself, was a PowerPC 603 based SMP machine(now extinct), not an x86 based computer. Around 2000 exist nowadays.

Dude, either

Werd.

Ixnay, found my answer.

And FreeDOS?

Is BeOS really any further away from being a UNIX than NeXTStep was? (serious inquiry.)
Yeah, I'll get to it after I make that train out of turd logs.
Ahem, I don't consider double T1 speed to be pathetic. 3MegaByte/sec ~ 24Mbit/sec, I also do not consider HALF T3 speed to be pathetic either.
Wow, that's impressive. You seriously get an equivilant of EIGHT megabit/sec downstream rate?
3 MegaBytes / second ? Bullshit...
