I was wondering ...
Which OS you think is the BEST ?


..well ???

What's the use of this? Are we so bored yet?

cause i see a lot more progress on BeOS than here...
and i was wondering where are you people ?

If you enter a mosque and a church and ask the people in both places wich one is "best" of "the christian" G*d and *ll*h, do you really think you would get a surprising or enlightening answer in either of the camps?

And please, do not even think of discussing the question above, it was just an example.

@ liquidbit

What progress on BeOS? BeOS is discontinued since....how many years? And Zeta is dead too.

Hi i was goin to post a thread close to this one about beos and mos. You cant really ask which one is best on here your on morphos forum LOL.
Ive been commin to this site every day for the last 4 months hoping some new hardware comes out that runs morphos still waiting id rather use it over OS4 looks a nice Os.
Beos is dead but theres a open source project getting closer and closer and runs on x86 hardware its a rewrite of beos from stratch which end up being better fixing some the probelms beos had heres the link http://haiku-os.org/ :).
Also i think If you compare Beos Max4 Beta1 which came out 3 months back its proberly more advance than Mos you even have the lastest firefox on it and bebits.com has tons of apps and software just like aminet.
Beos Is the closet thing i ever used that felt clean and nice to use like amiga os did without having to buy over priced powerpc hardware and some areas of the OS nicer to use than amiga os.

Dont get me wrong though i would love to try MOS thats why i come here every day without even trying this OS yet i cant be bothered with os4 and all the amiga inc bullshit goin on. Id buy a efika tomorrow if MOS 2.0 came out and hope something more powerfull comes out in the future after that.
Sucks waiting and not hearing anything from the MOS TEAM you ask me all these companys Amiga OS and MorphOS dont have a f$#king clue about marketing there product look how huge the fans base is.
I sold my amiga 500+ back in 1997 loved that computer got a cheap amiga 1200 for $10nz couple years back.
Its a gold mine really someone just needs to get there act together id buy one just like that!
Cant stand windows or mac osx and linux isnt a desktop os more a bloatware server Beos only OS i see worth getting for the x86 hardware.

That it may be, but Haiku certainly isn't. It's alive and well.

Fact is, BeOS/Haiku has several things MorphOS doesn't:

[list]Interface consistency across applications[/list]
[list]Drivers[/list]
[list]Memory protection[/list]
[list]Support for multi-user capabilities in future (Zeta has it, Haiku doesn't have it planned for R1)[/list]
[list]Support for cheap and easily available hardware[/list]
[list]Firefox: stable and opensource![/list]

MorphOS has AmigaOS 3.1 (and more) compatibility, but as yet lacks memory protection.

In common, though, they both use really old compiler versions!

it seems that Morphos always need a evil OS to fight with (one that is not enough big for not fail in the fight).Now that AmigaOS is in the limbo you are searching for new candidates, and you find Beos, isn?t you?
