Comment:

I'm thrilled with how BeOS runs on my powermac..in every way it is, to me superior than the intel version (which is still mighty fine!)...however, the old problem of no PPC apps has reared itr's ugly head..
I was previosly under the impression that there was only a very few PPC apps developed, making it extra hard to find them , but i've recently come across an old version of Be's website (in Japan) and there's well over 900 PPC apps listed (some of the links even still work!)..
So i'm wondering, where are they..is there some obscure ftp site that still has them?
Anyone know, or anywhere else there might be some?
Secondly, I've noticed that Frizbe.net is up for sale..i think it shoulkd stay in the Be community, (perhaps used for some similar purpose as it previosly served)..
anyone want to think about splitting on it (if they don't ask too much)..
Contact me thru comnputing.net if interested.
Thanx...

See what planetmirror dot com has on old beos ftp stuff. There is a great German site called Bezip dot de. I think bedrivers has a copy of the Frizbe. Yes. I think that the page maybe ought to be taken for beos use. There is also betips that seems to have lost it's lease.
