Hey, if the BeOS weenies get to say you need X to run a browser under
Linux, I get to say you need to have un grand sac de pommes de terre to
run a browser on BeOS. X is so twentieth-century.

Embedded Linux will eat BeOS's lunch before BeOS gets over the fact that
it went to bed without supper the night before.
