Current Owner of BeOS Code Claims Zeta is Illegal 140

Hank Powers writes "The legal status of the Zeta operating system that was derived from the source code Be Inc. left shortly before going bankrupt has been unclear for several years. Now, the current owner of the source code, ACCESS, claims "if Herr Korz feels that he holds a legitimate license to the BeOS code he's been using, we're completely unaware of it, and I'd be fascinated to see him produce any substantiation for that claim". The sales of Zeta have been suspended and so has the development been halted as well. OSNews has an article about the recent developments."

IF Windows XP alone takes up 300MB (which I must admit I doubt) then good luck squeezing the rest of those apps (especially Office 2k3) into the remaining 212 MB :-)

Oh,and then there's the matter of wsftp-server costing money (unless you want the crippled free version for home-use only),Office 2k3 costs a lot of money and mirc is also payware ,same goes for nero.

Even if you managed to get those things installed it would end up costing several times the cost of the PC alone in software
