80s nerd computers was: Re: Regret




That sounds like a trick question based on the current Sun stuff vs.
Open Source conversation! No Linux on the BeBox, it still runs BeOS. I
can run Linux on just about anything, why waste the rarity of the
BeBox on Linux (not that there is ANYTHING wrong with Linux).
