Description A real time operating system developed by Be Inc in the 1990s. While acclaimed as an easy to use and highly efficient operating system, BeOS was hurt by Microsoft's licensing agreements preventing it being preinstalled on retail computers. A court case later saw Be Inc receive a $23 Million payout from Microsoft. Be Inc was sold to Palm Inc in 2001, but a German company called yellowTAB licensed BeOS and the right to improve it.
