I've been known to draw from time to time.  I play guitar some, piano even 
less.  Photography occasionally.  Writing occasionally.  Nothing terribly 
thrilling to others, at least not unless I get a lot better.  I don't do 
anything way out there like collecting guns and extreme sports.

They seemed like nice people, but I never had an need to deal directly with 
them.  I really did love that file system though.

I butchers the spelling.  It is Atheos, and the URL is:
http://www.atheos.cx/

I don't know what you loved about BeOS, but Atheos has some similar and 
appealing things about it.  It is totally not ready for multimedia work yet.  
The only sound card supported is a SBPro, fer cryin out loud, but the author 
does appear to have a bit of a multimedia bent to his interestes, if the video
processing stuff is any indication.
