Hey buddy you're about 10 years behind the times. Just let the shit ass old OS die. Sheesh.
Yes, the OS is dead, but for me it is far better than any OS I have ever used. I maintain computers for friends with Windows 89, 2k, XP, and Vista as well as Ubuntu and Xandros Linux and PC-BSD. On my system I run BeOS MAX 4 and play with the latest Haiku builds. I also use Zeta 1.21 for my web server.
Why BeOS/Zeta if I can use Linux or Windows?
Simple. BeOS is simple. It only takes about two hours playing with the OS to know how to configure everything. When I need to do something like set-up a web server, I do not need to spend hours learning how to configure the system. I do not need to worry about firewall settings or hackers, I do not have to spend hours getting the networking to work. It just works and is easy to work with.
Windows and Linux are just too complex for most people to work with on their own systems. that is why they have a friend like me fix the system when it breaks.
The people that I have converted to BeOS have stopped pestering me to fix their system for them.
This is why the "shit ass old OS" is not dead yet. With Haiku making progress it refuses to die.
Sheesh
