Yes, they really do exist. Yes, they are great. And unlike certain
companies (like MS and Apple) the folks at Be haven't convinced
themselves of their own infallibility; they actually listen to (at this
point potential) customers and respond in tangible ways.

The current box with dual-603s is in every way faster and more
responsive than the fastest Mac I have played with (an 8500/120.) Linux
on this baby will _cook_, and the thought of dual 601s or (steady, now)
604s is almost too much to handle.
 
Guessing how the marketplace responds is always a tricky business, but
they really seem to have all the pieces; the tech, the attitude, and
some money. I know I'm getting one; I'm tired of waiting for Apple.
