	BeBox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Of particular note were the CPU load meters on the front of the unit (dubbed the "blinkenlights"), and the GeekPort in back, which allowed for experimentation.
		Two PowerPC 603 processors running at 66 or 133 MHz (a prototype version has also been found with two 200 MHz CPUs, though it was never released to the public)
		GeekPort: a digital and analog I/O and DC power connector, 37-pin connector on the ISA bus.

	The BeBox Zone - BeBox Technical Specification
		The GeekPort is located on the ISA bus and can be accessed by the CPU, a PCI busmaster card, or an ISA busmaster card.
		The shell of the connector is connected to chassis ground for shielding.
		The power connections have specifically been grouped to the center of the connector to help prevent the accidental shorting between the power pins of the GeekPort to external cables and devices.

	Be Inc. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Be aimed to create a modern computer operating system written in C++ on a proprietary hardware platform.
		In 1995, the BeBox personal computer was released by Be, with its distinctive strips of lights up the front that indicated the load of each CPU, and the combined analogue/digital, 37-pin GeekPort has made it a highly desirable item for collectors.
		In addition to BeOS and BeBox, Be also produced BeIA, an ill-fated OS for internet appliances.

		Initially the OS ran on its own BeBox hardware; it was extended to cover all computers running PowerPC...
		The BeBox was a short-lived highly specified (including a GeekPort) dual processor PC, offered by Be, Incorporated[?] to run their own operating system - BeOS.
		After initial prototypes with the AT&T Hobbit processor the machines were fitted with two PowerPC 603e processors running at 66MHz.

	The Device Kit: The GeekPort and its Classes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The GeekPort is a piece of hardware that communicates with external devices.
		The signals and data that these classes read and write appear at the GeekPort connector, a 37-pin female connector that you'll find at the back of every BeBox.
		In addition to the pins that correspond to the analog and data paths, the GeekPort provides power and ground pins.

		As more projects are discovered or developed, they will be added to the GeekPort Project List.
		I know when the BeBox was cancelled in early 1997, a lot of people began talking about a PCI card with a GeekPort (and potentially IR ports etc. as well).
		Similarly, there was talk of a breakout box with GeekPort etc. (called BeBoxette as I recall??).

		The BeBox hardware will always be fully supported by BeOS, and it will allow you to exploit all the features and programs that are delivered with the OS since they are an integrated system.
		For example, there will be an API for the Geekport that will enable project-builders concentrate on designing the system instead of making their own drivers.
		The GeekPort is A 37-pin female D-shell connector because: - Plenty of signal pins and adequate power and grounds.

		Even when you have "enough" channels (kind of like having "enough" money, I guess), additional CPUs can be used for realtime effects, which are another thing that's really lacking on non-DSPed audio workstations today.
		I've been thinking the GeekPort would make a right nice place to hang some real analogish controls and guages, for people not 100% happy with doing audio workstation stuff on-screen all the time.
		Of course, MIDI automation would also work, what with the four possible built-in MIDIs, and plenty of other MIDI devices that hook into normal PClone orifices, needing only software to make them tick.

		BeBox hadware was based on a dual PowerPC 603 C.P.U. running at 66 MHz (later 133 MHz).
		The motherboard was not really innovative but featured a large range of Input/Output ports, including IDE and SCSI HDD interfaces, standard PC card slots, MIDI, audio, infrared ports plus a special GeekPort for hardware experiments.
		The Be Operating System was also developed from the ground up.
