Haiku OS video presentation
By libervisco on 05 Sep 2006
The creator of Haiku Podcast has made a very nice video presenting Haiku OS, a BeOS-like Free Operating System which is now mostly in alpha stage and can already be used for simple things. This video shows that it's well on its way and I believe it has great potential as a possible future contender in the realm of Free Operating Systems, as they start developing some more exciting things based on the first release of Haiku. Here's the video: http://sikosis.com.nyud.net:8080/haiku/Haiku05.divx
Enjoy.
Enjoy.

"Cool apps like ... clock" made me laugh
Yeah the cool clock app made

Some things shown are pretty cool though, like that memory usage and processes menus (showing how much is each process using CPU). That's pretty cool.
parody of Mac commericial
by a thing | Wed, 2006-09-06 00:09I think that clock thing was a parody of the Mac commercial that says what Windows comes with out-of-the-box.
I like the workspace application. I think X WMs will pick it up soon.
It might be the parody
by libervisco | Wed, 2006-09-06 01:03It might be the parody indeed.
I also like the workspaces, it's one of the things I found pretty impressing.
