![]() ![]() BeOS gets sold off to whoever is in the market for pennies. ![]() In 1998 the investors should have said we're sorry, there isn't money for this to continue Jean-Louis, better luck next time, and turn off the lights. ![]() Maybe you have a Windows PC to do billing and surf that new Web, but in your studio you have a BeOS system and it doesn't matter that it can't print because that's not what it's for.īe shouldn't have made it to the turn of the century, nowhere close. They're going to build a system which is NOT a competitor for Windows, it's a whole separate environment. This is also because Be's original plan says competing with Windows is suicide (it was).

I’ve been doing app development since iOS 3 and the first version of the App Store and used an ADP1. Software updates will oscillate between breaking and fixing these things on and off between different devices. It’s not unique to any platform, and seems to be most often affecting the keyboard input, but occasionally seems to affect the rest of the UI as well.
