Time for a BeOS report I guess. Palm bought BeOS and hired members of
the engineering team. Your Palm's operating system now benefits.

Be retained the right to sue Microsoft for closing them out of the OS
market for Intel boxes through illegally restrictive OEM agreements.
Microsoft paid millions to settle. Chump change.

Wish it had been different. BeOS was full of great tech. Imagine where
it could be today.

Heck, for that matter imagine where PARIS could be today, if only...
