There is a great deal of momentum behind the BeOS application development, and with the commercial shipment of the BeOS, we are seeing a steady stream of products being released.

We currently have nearly 5,000 active BeOS developers. Approximately 2,000 developers attended one of our three developer conferences in 1997, from at least 30 states and 14 different countries. 60% of our developers are working on totally new applications rather than ports of products available on other platforms.

Our developers are experienced and understand the limitations of other platforms; 55% from have developed on Macintosh, 44% on Unix and 36% on Windows.
