7/8 years ago I worked as a DB adm/system adm with an amazing operating system from IBM , VM. You could run other OS from IBM over VM, or VM under VM. it really had some amazing things. It was much better than the other OS from IBM for mainframes. But I never heard anything about VM (yes, VM is Virtual Machine).
IBM ran it all over the world as theirs web servers, some years ago. Do anyone knows if it's still out there?
Harry Potter are for a man who really are a man. A man, or woman, that really enjoys to dream of impossible thinks and fight for them. For a person o thrives on the impossible, on the amazing of the little things of the world around us. Of make a piece of paper with little ink spots a unique world.
Maybe vecause they LIKE the book. The book don't freeze your imagination like a movie about a book does. Children love to imagine and create theirs own movie. They do it all the time.

My father is trying to improve is english with the first Harry Potter book, that my brother gave him. I read only the first lines and it really seems to be a nice book to read.
I read on my local paper that the scriptwriter wasn't expecting a lot of people to the movie because it was a european style movie, not much action. He really said that didn't get all the pub about a european style movie. Figure the surprise of the guy the next few weeks!
Maybe this will be rated offtopic, but I should include a tip that it was a joke. There are a lot of people reading and moderating and not all get the joke. Different mood, culture, football.:-)
Sure you are right! I have lot of things to do, projects do work on,...excuses. But what I was saying was that BE OS wasn't attracted enough to me to install it on the first place. I know it, I saw it, I'm very aware of what I can do with it, simply didn't install it.
When I talked about Borland was: 1st i had to work with it, they have a consistent publicity (and they give you continous info on what is new and why to use it, I had a good experiences and bads but the overall is still positive) that take you to experiment new products. They are not open source and that wasn't the point. The point was BE OS at the moment can get, IMHO, the good bust they need if they go Open Source.
They can put Be OS on theirs hardware, so BE open will bring more developers to Palm. More Developers, more apps, more clients, more money.
They bought Be, I suppose, to habe the brains and the know-how, not for the profits of it. So, IMHO, they will grow the value of BE OS if they growth the community of users, developers and apps. And theu have the hardware for it. And probably they will lunch some kind of friendly e-book with PALM+BE.
I got BE 4.5 some years ago. Never got it installed, there were always some more fun things to do or more important stuff to explore. I think one of the things was the fact it wasn't open source. I really like the Be style. But the fact that it was a small close group didn't give me the push to go. I think it was my fault but also the Be Inc. for not do the same support as e.g. Borland do for their products, that I really like and used and still like.
Now that Be has another change I hope they open it and open the window for fresh air to get in.
Be can be a good free software to new comers to Open Software & Free Source.
I hope Palm do the right thing, release Be sources to public and let it grow.
Evolution trieves on diversity and the best way to choose is to know that there are a lot of distros, much of them so good that is very hard to choose one.
I choose based on the great Icons of Mandrake;-), but still want to experiment others.
Some are better for their performancd on server others for the desktop others because...
Hey, you can choose! And don't pay an extra for that (don't pay at all)!!

Do you pay for having your name? Or picking a name for a book? So why have to pay for choosing a name for a site?

You should go to a mail warehouse, where you will see really strange lost packets.
You have a screenshot on Byte.

If that makes me a child, I'm glad to be one.
Hey this is really hot! People quickly entered 100 comments in half an hour. It is a good sign that the kids are connecting with their old folks.
Good job parents! Keep listenning to the kids!!
Sorry for the fast finger nad lazy eyes:(but is a good laugh "flying soccer"??)

It's just like starwars. One kid who is discovering the world, with funny and strange friends, in a strange place.
The huge difference are the technologies. Here you miss a bit of magique not flying soccers, only flying brooms.
What parts of Linux they use? Are all Open Source? Is there something very specific? What kernel? They use a light X?
They use what of Linux?

PDA OS is still open and not only PDA but the all appliance world. I think that BE or LINUX could be a good thing to both places.
...
BE OS for ebooks, video-fones,...
GNU/LINUX for mass content providers, real time reliable interactive servers,
With BE OS as open source OS they will certanly have a good fight with MS. And BE has a good reputation on relaiabilitythat should be advetized more.
They can put Be OS on theirs hardware, so BE open will bring more developers to Palm. More Developers, more apps, more clients, more money.

I always thought that Palm was on Palm OS. If the are changing will the change it for Be OS or GNU/Linux?
IMHO if the competition is focusing on GNU/Linux theiy will also provably, or they want stand on the crow with the BE OS. What do you think?
