In the report given by Sun Yaguan, many operating systems are listed, but in fact, there are not many options for Chen Zier.

Some have disappeared, such as the Arthur system developed by Acorn Computer, which in fact has long been discontinued, and was written as if it were given to him as if it were a science popularization.

It's like the teacher in class who gives you a bunch of things and then suddenly diverges to another thing, and talks for a long time before finally telling you: I hope you won't be at a loss when you hear people talk about it, and you don't know it at all. Even if you don't take the exam, it's not a bad thing to know about it. You say yes, right?

But in fact, it was he who blew the bald slur, and many of the things he diverged would never be mentioned in his life.

Microsoft and IBM also jointly developed an OS/2 operating system, but even Microsoft itself gave up on switching to the indos system, and Chen Zier went to see what he did.

Palm's operating system is good, and they develop an operating system specifically for the PDA market, which is a small market where Palm had a 90% market share at its peak, which is remarkable.

However, Sun Yaguan's evaluation of this operating system from a professional perspective is: it does not support multi-threading, and its long-term development is limited.

Chen Zier couldn't understand the first half of the sentence, but could only understand the second half. But that's enough.

Well, pick and choose, and in the end, only Be company remains.

It's also the only less popular operating system that Chen is familiar with, and he hasn't used or know about the company, but he knows that Apple has tried to buy Be.

The reason why he remembers this detail clearly in "The Biography of Jobs" is because that pass officially marked the threshold of Jobs' return to Apple.

Apple has been fooling around for years, and finally has problems with its own operating system, so it needs a new operating system to make the new product look at least usable, not a nice but unstable embroidered pillow.

NEXT and Be, compete on this point.

In the end, Apple chose NEXT, and at the same time had Steve Jobs again.

And Be became the backdrop.

"Jobs's Biography" wrote: In 1997, because the system they developed for Macintosh was terminally ill, and the entire MacOS team was unable to solve the problems complained by users, so Apple wanted to acquire an operating system compatible with Macintosh computers.

Unfortunately, the CEO at the time, Amelio, was in a hurry, and he had to solve the problem before the Macorld conference in a few months, so he didn't have that much time for the engineers.

In desperation, Apple switched to a more suitable operating system.

This is the first time Be has appeared in Chen Zier's impression.

indos is inherently different from Macos, but beOS is different, and its founder, Garcy, was born out of Apple......

Mac, thunderous name, this is the abbreviation of Macintosh, and in the history of Apple, there has been a team, called the Macintosh team, the work content is naturally to develop Macintosh.

The founder of BeOS once took over the Macintosh team, only to be fired, and he left Apple to start the company be.

So before the conference, when Apple's own Copland system was already a piece of that could not be counted on, and Microsoft could not help itself, the CEO put his hope on BeOS, and because Garcy has Apple's genes, BeOS can be well compatible with Macintosh computers.

This saves a lot of time.

Here's the plan......

But BE's offer is not less than $275 million...... This is after the counter-offer.

Garcy feels that Apple is a moment of life and death, and he wants to slaughter his old club. But the old club can't catch his breath anymore, and there's really nothing for him to slaughter.

So the transaction fails.

In addition, Jobs is Jobs, he left Apple to found NEXT, and the operating system developed by the new company is indeed better than Be. Although the Be operating system had just been developed at that time, it had not yet been tested in the application, which seemed to be a bit of a bully.

But regardless of these ethics, Apple professionals rated four operating systems, first eliminating two that were not compatible with Macintosh at all.

In the end, only NEXT and Be remained. Finally, NEXT scored higher than Be.

There is an advantage of Be, which is important for Amelio who is in a hurry to grab time, that is, this operating system is completely compatible with Macintosh because the technicians were born from Apple.

To put it simply, as long as BeOS is stable, there is no problem with the new product, and it can be used when it is installed, how good it is, perfect, Amelio feels that his headache problem can be solved in this way, but others are asking for too much.

Sure enough, in the end, Be was abandoned.

Originally, this was Chen Zier's best choice, but when it was first developed, people offered $275 million, but now?

And it's not really perfect, otherwise would Apple be stupid?

Sun Yaguan wrote in the report: The first purchase price is expensive. Second, there is a problem with this system: every time you use this program, you need to upgrade, and once you upgrade the Be system, a new problem will arise - third-party R&D staff also need to upgrade their system software.

The intimate old man knew that Chen Zier might not be able to understand these words, so he also added a second popular explanation: it is difficult for third-party developers, and further afore, it is difficult for third-party developers to develop application software that is compatible with it.

Now I understand, difficult means less, less means less mainstream software, and not much mainstream software means that no one wants to use it...... Back to that question.

That's a problem.

It's a trivial matter, and soon the Internet bubble will burst, and all these people from head to toe even a hair you have to cut the price for me, and it's a big price cut.

Chen Zier was lying on the desk in his bedroom studying the report, and he was a little distressed when he saw that he put down the pen in his hand here.

He originally thought about turning on the computer and sending an email to the academician to ask if there was a way to solve this shortcoming, but then he thought that if it could be easily solved, so many professional and intelligent people would not have let this problem exist a long time ago.

But which one can there be besides Be?,Android doesn't know where it is at this time.,It's hard to talk about Android...... I do.

And most importantly...... Chen Zier likes that it is born from Apple's genes, and the report reads: The earliest version of BeOS runs on Mac PCs, and the effect is also good, especially the support for PoerPC processors is very popular with Apple computer users, leaving a deep impression on many people.

MacOS has a gorgeous look and feel, with a focus on multimedia and aesthetic design.

BeOS also has a gorgeous coat, it is even more gorgeous than MacOS, because it is not only graphical in appearance, but also in its core, in a way, it is a graphical system in the true sense of the word.

But why didn't it develop, Chen Zier really doesn't know, is it because it's too unfriendly to third-party developers? know, I'm not learning to do operating systems!

But after being annoyed for a while, Chen Zier suddenly thought that he... It's not easy to do something, but of course you have to take some risks!

It's too easy to make the reborn lose their passion......

So......
