Oh, the humanity

[sonnylarsen]

I just felt like I should tell everyone that sometimes, late at night, I think about BeOS, and then I cry myself to sleep.

 

[Track Rat]

It's pretty much dead.

 

[Clark_Griswold]

Dead indeed...sad, sad, sad. I think it would have been great for a DAW setup.

Didn't PALM buy all the intellectual property??

 

[sonnylarsen]

Yeah, and engineers too...

I just have so many fond memories of mixing with that 3D Mixer, it was way cooler than turning a knob. If anyone had come up with a good multi-tracker, I would still be running a dual boot. Of course, there are still Be fanatics, developing stuff like Open BeOS, and Blue OS, but you know it won't be the same....

*sigh*

 

[Clark_Griswold]

IN realistic terms, is something like n-track portable? It could be done, no?

 

[sonnylarsen]

You know, I actually emailed flavio and he told me he had no plans for a port due to the time and expense it would take. If I had money, I would pay him whatever it took.

*heavy sigh*

 

[coffeeandtv]

hey sonnylarsen where are you from?

 

[sonnylarsen]

originally...


Born in Omaha, NE...raised Council Bluffs, IA which is just across a river from Omaha. I went to college about 30 miles away and then, obviously moving up in the world, I moved back to CB. It's smaller (and cheaper!)than Omaha, and would be wonderful if not for a horrifying redneck infestation. There worse than termites around here. Oh well.

 

[TexRoadkill]

Rednecks just outside of Omaha! What is this world coming too?

Isnt that like saying there are too many blacks in Africa?

 

[sonnylarsen]

yeah, or too many ants in antarctica..er..wait...

 

[elevate]

What's really sad is that Steinberg had Cubase done for BeOS, but chose not to release it.

 

[sonnylarsen]

*convulses*
I am generally against the whole hacker thing, but, seriously too bad some random hacker didn't swipe it and release it anyway....

*extraordinarily heavy sigh*
