I am thinking BE OS, as they have been doing shows on it on ZD tv and
articles on the ZD website.  It has a core similar or related to Linux
but installs easily, is cheap, and supposed to be VERY powerful.  It
also coexists very friendlyly with all sorts of disk partitions.  It
would be a very good market for full blown Euphoria.  I wish that Rob
would also add it to his list of potential markets, as they are saying
that the only drawback to Be is that not enouph software is available.
Linux is just not friendly enouph for users...
