Borklog: One entry

16 November 2000

Byte has an article about a BeOS View of Apple's New OS X. by Scott Hacker (a luminary in the BeOS community. I'm really bummed by BeOS and its lack of finding a market. The OS is incredibly fast and responsive, and the programming environment is to die for: pervasive multithreading, a well designed C++ UI library, fast journaled filesystem with attributes (leading to some cool database-like features) Unfortunately there's no market (even less of a market than dear old MacOS) due to lack of marketing and not aggressively getting basic business apps on the platform.
