How strange to see JLG writing what is essentially an epitaph for Palm, which had acquired the remaining pieces of his (insanely awesome) BeOS.

well, not so strange, he recognizes a dead horse when he sees it... And the other remains of his BeOS live on happily in Android...

that's true. i used to work at be, and a startling number of my former coworkers are now at google, working on android.
