- vundercind 2y agoWin98 and contemporary Linux felt dog slow on identical hardware. I ran all three. BeOS was special. (Actually QNX Photon came really close)
- RajT88 2y agoDitto. Ran all 3, BeOS was really special. Like lightning in a bottle.
- Scramblejams 2y agoIt ain’t rose tinted glasses at work here. BeOS’s pervasive use of non-blocking message passing made its UI smooth like butter, almost no matter how much you loaded the machine up. There was nothing like it then, and outside of Haiku I’m not aware of anything like it now.
