I have one of these sitting on my shelf! I still get it down and flip through it every so often. I used BeOS around 2002 and 2003, and it was so cool. One of my favorite things was when I figured out how to use file system metadata to essentially turn files and folders into a database. Having emails essentially be plain text files, but with all the OS searchable metadata of subject, from, time sent, etc. that could be viewable in a Tracker window was awesome. And at the time, it was one of the few systems I could get to work with my dual processor system. Unfortunately at that time I was struggling with things that I needed to use via Windows that I couldn't do in BeOS. Even though I didn't use it a ton, I love it and I always wished it had taken off better. Every so often I load up Haiku for that hit of nostalgia, but it feels like a lot of modern software is missing from it. Even just being able to run a modern Firefox on it would be enough to keep it on my home computer for most things.
