eschaton posted:but what about that new FPGA implementation of the 68K that's insanely fast and plugs right in to an A600? want this for my se/30. speaking of which, can old rear end macs like the se/30 boot and install the os from CD-ROM, or does that have to be done via floppy? my se/30 has the caddy CD-ROM unit and a lan card and is v. baller Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 03:44 on Jan 28, 2016 |

Sham bam bamina! posted:the beb box wasnt boring beos owned, I unironically paid for multiple versions of it and used it as my primary os for a couple years. when it was new, beos was better at multimedia and multitasking than Windows, and it was better at being an actual usable os than any linux at the time. rip beos, too bad your ownership tried to take Steve jobs to the bank, or we could all be running MacBook airs with beos today

Notorious b.s.d. posted:beos was a tech demo, only gassee could imagine it was a viable operating system Doc Block posted:There were almost no BeOS applications (in part because developing for BeOS was a pain), there were large sections of the OS that were unfinished, and driver support was nonexistent (just getting the GUI to switch over to the VESA 2.0 video driver if you didn't have one of the 2 video cards with a native driver was a pain; otherwise it defaulted to a generic VGA driver with 640x480x16 colors). there was an nvidia driver that worked with my riva128, even. for 3D acceleration(!) and there was an office compliant set of apps as well. on my p2-300 dell it absolutely flew, and could play most any media you threw at it, smoother and with a higher bitrate ceiling than Windows could. what I'm saying is that as a college kid into media of all manner (porn) it was awesome. I dual booted with Windows so I could play OG counterstrike also bebits was the poo poo back then. software installs were super easy, compared to pre-apt Linux and clunky WISE installers what I'm saying is beos was a product of, and directly addressed the problems of its time. if only Steve would have bought it, beos X would own Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Jan 30, 2016 |

also the beos ceo was like "I'll sell it for 100 billion dollars" and apple told him to gently caress off
