This is a request for assistance with the BeOS/2 campaign,
http://www.speednet.com.au/~daeron/BeOS2
The BeBox is a multi-processor PowerPC box with a massive array of i/o
standard, ideal for business but cost effective enough for the general home
user as well. In short, we believe that the BeBox should also boot into the
OS/2 micro kernel, instead of just booting into either BeOS (multi-task;
multi-threaded); or Mac systems. Thusly creating a new generation of Personal
Computers, able to boot into user choice of Mac; new BeOS; or PC mode via
OS/2.
We hope to get as many responses as possible during the **first two weeks of
January, some members of Be Inc. have already showed interest & requested
the number of responses so far. We hope that enough responses will not only
convince Be Inc. but give them strong grounds for getting IBM to release the
PowerPC compatible OS/2 code for commercial release. Any assistance much
appreciated, and thank you for your time. :)
