On the other hand: A reliable version of BeOS has just been released - quite early to invest in writing software for it, isn't it? The sceenshots of BeOS look really nice and its "internals" seem to be up-to-date (contrary to the current MacOS). I would give it a try, if there were a Mathematica version. However, Wolfram will see it just the other way round.
