Hi Mark:

I have no idea. 

I thought it very interesting that a new operating system is actually being
constructed. The reason behind it, I can only speculate but there may be a
very legitimate one.

It seems that this is a time of huge changes in the computer market and many
can see new opportunities.

Hello Jim

Do you think that Linux apps will install and run on Haiku?  If not, does
it have future at all?

I do admire the vision of anyone that attempts to start a new OS.
