You mean SMP is targetting only embedded systems and not high performance
workstations … servers ???
Yes I think RTP is mainly targetted at embedded type systems.
most important is Lynx !
Your right.

Considering I have a GeForce and SBLive, and a Rage and SBCompat on the
other, I think that it’s amazing. The BeOS install is just as good (a
bit slower, but you’re installing more stuff), but it doesn’t support
the GeForce, which means I can’t use it >
Off-topic note: the GeForce driver for BeOS has been released in the
meantime. It supports TNT cards as well.

Why
would you say that? Because some BeOS site had a comparison between
the
RTP
and BeOS? Oh wait… it’s because both OS’s will run on a desktop
computer.No.
Tell me this. What target market does BeOS target, and what is
QNX’s
target
market? Quick hint: Not the Desktop area.Well, they have both chosen to release free desktop OS’s that are
likely to
appeal to similar types of users.
To take your logic one step further, I could insinuate that QNX is
competing
with Windows 98/ME, because QNX runs on a desktop. Hmmm doubt that
very
highly… Windows 9x HAS no serious competition right now.Well, now you ARE talking about two different groups of users. I
wouldn’t
be caught dead using Win9x or ME. I use Win2k, Linux, BeOS and am
trying
QNX.Who do you think RTP was created for? Why do you think RTP and it’s
users
are so much different than BeOS and it’s users?Adam.

I am a BeOS user and I love it. I also tried QNX but could not get it to
boot. It installs just fine but locks up when booting. I put out a
message in this group but have had no replies yet. I am hoping to at
least get it running so I can take a look at it. And I agree that QNX
and Be users probably have much in common. Anyone dissatisfied with
Windows enough to try any alternative OS is a good candidate to try QNX.
