I second that.

Yes, but it's also why some new BeOS developers were afraid of the BeOS
forced-multithreading side, because they're/wasn't comfortable at all,
coming from Old' Sequential Coding & Design World.
And this don't help BeOS to acquire new developers (and, so, new softwares).
Even, suprisingly, from big software editors, which seems to suffer this
uncomfortable_with_mutlithreading problem too...

Too soon maybe.
