Haiku is an interesting project with a lot of potential, but it isn't ready for me to use yet. It's not too buggy anymore (though not ready for production), but hardware and software support is very lacking.

With that said, Haiku is very fast and interesting to play with.

Its not nearly as good as the original BeOS which was a great OS and very easy to use.

I've played with it in Virtualbox a bit. It is intresting but I have not found it to have much use.

I actually installed it using Puppy on my old computer. All I need to do is find where the FreeBSD drivers are, so I can install the rtl8139 one for my SMC Ez 10/100 card.
