Yes, another BeOS shop closes. With the state of things, not that surprising. But not all things are black, here are a couple of quotes from the site:
Quote:
Q: Will the store return?

A: I'd like it too. around the time OpenBeOS is close to their first official R1 release, I'll re-evaluate where I stand and look at getting back into things.


and
Quote:
Q: Do you have any leftover Inventory you want to sell for cheap?

A: Yes! I have a rather large credit card bill from this venture and I have a number of items I would like to no longer have taking up space in my garage. Shortly I'll be putting up a list of items that anyone can send me an email making me any offer they want for whatever they are interested in.


So this one means, if you see something you want to grab, go for it, you'll not only be getting you want but also helping Scott.

Scott also mentions that this will not affect the Hardware Matrix, quite possibly just the opposite.

We here at TBJ thank Scott for the all the great work he's been doing for BeOS and it's users. Here's to better days.

What's going to become of the Handware Compatibility Matrix?

The Hardware Matrix will still exist.

Well, franknputer, if you only _read_ the article, you'd get your answer to that... hehe
