		The BeBox Forums have a number of BeBox hardware related forums, containing questions, answers and discussions about compatible hardware, hardware problems and related issues.
		SheepShaver for BeOS PPC (and soon for LinuxPPC) allows the MacOS to be run natively on under BeOS PPC (on a BeBox for example).
		For those interested in a Linux port to the BeBox, there is also a Be-Linux mailing list, which I have been subscribed to for the past year or so.

		Of particular note were the CPU load meters on the front of the unit, and the GeekPort in back, which allowed for experimentation.
		The BeBox made its debut in October 1995 (BeBox Dual603-66).
		The processors were upgraded to 133MHz in August 1996 (BeBox Dual603e-133).

		BeBox is a new line of multiprocessor computers, using high-performing PowerPC RISC microprocessors combined with an efficient architecture built on PC- standard components.
		BeBox storage is centered around the SCSI-2 interface because it delivers great overall system performance, having the harddrive more or less directly connected to the system bus, and because it is more expandible than IDE.
		BeBox Dual603-66s are FCC Class A approved while the dual 133s are Class B approved.

	::The BeBox Zone:: [v3.0] - One processor per person is not enough
		You'll find details of all the BeBox models developed by Be Incorporated, from the standard dual processor PowerPC BeBox to the lesser known single and dual processor ATandT Hobbit based BeBox prototypes, and the quad processor PowerPC BeBox that was designed and tested, but never made it to production.
		In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the BeBox, Joseph Palmer, has put together a photo gallery that includes photos from the BeBox Launch at Agenda '95, photos of the first run of BeBoxen which were assembled in the Be offices in Menlo Park, and a bunch of pictures from Macworld Japan, 1997.

	BeBox barrels back \| CNET News.com
		Eight months after its delivery into the PC arena, the BeBox is back in the news with an initiative to keep the development platform modern by integrating Internet features into the Be Operating System, including support for Java.
		BeBox is a PowerPC-based multiprocessor computer aimed at high-end application developers that features its own operating system, the Be OS.
		The existing BeBox with two 66-MHz processors will still be available priced at $2,195 for a fully configured version or $1,195 for a customized version.

		Jean Louis Gassée was, however, reluctant to unveil the BeBox at Agenda ‘96, with its audience of industry analysts and members of the media.
		Joe was the designer of the BeBox, and he has recently posted an article about the BeBox’s 10th anniversary, along withan image gallery of Be Inc photos from around the time of the BeBox launch.
		He’s got some great photos of the BeBox assembly line (the first BeBoxen were hand-assembled at Be Inc’s offices), as well as a photo of the first two BeBox buyers.

		We tested BeBox in a beta version with developer release 7 of the Be OS and the first release of Metrowerks' native C odeWarrior C++ development environment.
		BeBox is a programmer's dream, but the average user will find the user interface (UI) a bit rough and inconsistent.

	The BeBox (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The BeBox was designed in 1995 and 1996 as a development platform for Jean-Louis Gassée's BeOS.
		Initial press reports treated Be as a whole computer company, with the manufacturing of the BeBox and BeOS, and reported Jean-Louis as having repeated Steve Jobs 'mistake' of founding NeXT.
		Presumably the pressure from the press reports encouraged Be to launch the BeBox onto the market, where it reached the UK in early 1997 through Computer Warehouse and

	Interview with Jean Louis Gassée
		Certainly his computer is. With dual 603 Power PC processors, the BeBox with it's own operating system is one of the fastest critters on the range.
		With this kind of power the BeBox could be the the computer of choice for the bleeding edge garage multimedia Digital Cinema developer of the 90's.
		The BeBox is powerful enough for it, and, in the beginning at least, you don't need to have huge traffic.

	Target PC :: It's time for a new BeBox (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Most BeOS users know about the long defunct BeBox, that almost gaudy machine with double PowerPC 603 processors, a Geekport (what it really was), and 4 serial ports.
		Development for such a system would be next to nothing, except for my first example system, and even that would still use mostly standard PC hardware, therefore making the BeBox relatively inexpensive for a high powered workstation (in the $1600 range).
		Be would not have to offer their own monitor or printer to go with this unit, but maybe hint at some good options by offering them for sale along with the new BeBox on the Be Store.

	The BeBox Zone - BeBox Opinions
		Rick Chipper was one of the early BeBox owners in Australia.
		His comments focus on packaging and software more than the BeBox itself, but they are still an interesting contemporary view of the buzz surrounding the BeBox.
		His post identifies the exact hardware he ended up using in his BeBox, hardware he had problems with, and his thoughts on some of the (early revision) software.

		When you start the BeBox up, you end up in a Finder-like (Program Manager-like, for you PC weenies) environment, with a NeXT-style "dock" on the left edge of the screen.
		The BeBox and BeOS were designed to be a system for the 90's, quite unlike it's more popular brethren that are burdened with layers of backward compatibility.
		Double-clicking on the BeBox icon in the dock on the left, I'm greeted with the drives that are mounted on the system.

		Thank you to all who suggested, but it was just taking far too much room on the whiteboard and I wanted to send the IP request to DCS.
		Physically, the BeBox will be in the office where Rani was until I shifted it over.
		As far as access to the BeBox is concerned, policy is yet to be set.

		The BeBox uses PowerPC chips, and applications for it can be developed on a Macintosh via the Metrowerks compiler.
		The first BeBox is a dual-processor system; later models are expected to have four or eight processors.
		When the BeBox was announced last October, Metrowerks had not yet written a version of CodeWarrior that could run directly on the platform.

		He’s “spent a heap of time” on a new version of the The BeBox Zone.
		And to owners of original BeBoxes… atlamp asks that you spare 5 minutes over at The BeBox Registry and enter the details of your BeBox.
