Today I take a look at Haiku an open source & free remake of BeOS, an operating system made by Be, Inc. which was later acquired by Palm, Inc. After the acquisition and subsequent announcement of discontinuation, the openBeOS project was announced, which was renamed haiku after a cease and desist from Palm, Inc.

BeOS was a revolutionary operating system at the time that almost was bought out by apple and became Mac OS X. While it is not unix like, it is unix compatible and is built on a similar philosophy. It is one of a few free & open source operating systems that are not based on FreeBSD or Linux code.
