IP: BE UNVEILS INTEL OPERATING SYSTEM from Edupage

[Dave Farber <farber () cis upenn edu>]

Be Inc. has announced a new version of its BeOS software, designed to work
with Intel-based machines.  Release 3 for Intel is still primarily for
programmers and enthusiasts, says the company's VP for engineering, but a
Release 4 version for general consumers is scheduled for a September
rollout.  The BeOS is built from the ground up to be a multimedia system,
with streaming audio and video support designed into the kernel.  Be's goal
is to capture 25% of the multimedia publishing market.  (TechWeb 19 Mar 98)
