On: Haiku Alpha 1: Rebirth of legend

[dwmcqueen]

Just wish Haiku could distributed the old music that came from Be, included such great tubes as "BeOS - it's my OS" and "Virtual(void)" which lamented rebooting multiple times.

Happily, they're available online:

Virtual (Void) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpgLFEHrWSA

5038 BeOS It's The OS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlOi-L-N0X4

[agildehaus → miles]

These were from a small group of Be engineers that had a band called "The Cotton Squares".

According to kallisti5 (a Haiku dev), they may have permission to redistribute. They should!

There was "The Cotton Squares" 3 songs in MP3, but, sadly download links are dead now.[0]

FTR, Thanks to linked HaikuOS Forum thread, ~10 year old Reddit request could be solved finally.[1]

They missed an opportunity to release an album called "The Be Sides"
