A friend of mine deployed a small FM radio station in Bethlehem ~10 years ago using a commercial radio product that was built around yellowTAB ZETA. I thought it was great, since I've always had a soft spot for the BeOS, but I did find it odd that they were building a commercial product around an OS that was basically unsupportable.
- stinkytaco 10y agoI assume it was Tune Tracker. The thing with Tune Tracker is that it was really good, really cheap ($200 as of right now, but I recall seeing it for $99 when I was managing a college station) and how often do you need to update something that's not online? It actually runs on Haiku now, according to their website, which makes is more supportable in the long term.
- asveikau 10y agoThat's a really fascinating niche. Seems like because it is so specialized and falls under "equipment", people will put up with what most computer users would not. It looks like they also sell a preconfigured hardware/software bundle so you don't need to mess around with installing an OS.
