   I have an original BeOS 5.0 Pro for PPC and Intel.   
   I have been using it on my PowerMac 8500 604/150MHz with 128Mb RAM.   
   It goes pretty fast...but not as blazing as you might expect.   
   Althought faster than MacOS 8.x   
   Use it with an Apple Monitor or you will get some synchronization problems   
   with the ATI board.   
   Contact me by email, i can put an image of the original CD in my sharing   
   folder.
