BeOS error messages

[Pusbucket]

BeOS came out approximately the same time as Windows 95, but sadly never really captured any market and kinda fizzled into obscurity.

The company I worked for at the time was checking it out as it was reported to beat the pants off of Windows and Mac OS for video/image editing at the time.

I worked for an Autodesk and Adobe certified dealer, so right up our alley.

Anyway in playing around with it in a VM ages ago I took screen shots of the 404 errors.

I present a few of them here for your amusement, reflection and puzzlement. (I cut/pasted them into 1 pic rather than posting each screenshot)

sorry they're not super clear

Is  there a free/open source BeOS clone somewhere?

I tried, but did not find it.

Alas, lost in the mists of digital time

 

(sorry, I had to )

BeOS was picked up and continued as the Haiku Project;

and you can find iso's of it at the Internet Archive, but use caution;
