I like TOS.
I love MagiC.
I like MiNT.
I like Linux.
I love MacOS.
I lurrrve RISC-OS,
I hate Windows,
and I love BeOS.
Nuff said really!
BeOS was never commercially successful, unfortunately, it was a great OS designed from the ground-up to be efficient and fast. It's the only OS that works correctly with multiple CPUs (on a PC anyway). The fact it's POSIX compliant and mostly open source stands it in good stead, but there is a teeny userbase and softwarebase, even less than Atari! There are no killer apps for it, and the ones you can get tend to be more developed on Wintel or MacOS anyway.
It's a shame because I like that little OS...
