Re: You ran it on WinCE and..a..Dreamcast?... Really?

Why do you think that mentioning WinCE somehow cancels out their points? They didn't say they wrote WinCE, or even liked it. In fact, the fact that they chose to run BeOS in a VM instead of sticking with WinCE suggests they may have shared your negative views of it. As it happens, I had a WinCE handheld at one point. I didn't write the OS, I didn't write apps for it, I didn't even buy the device (come to think of it, I'm not exactly sure on the chain of people who had it before it wound up in my hands). I just had it and used it. I would hate for that to invalidate any opinions I ever have about OS quality.
