About the project
A Haiku application that emulates Be Inc.'s BeBox, the dual-processor computer BeOS was born on, running both PowerPC models from their boot ROMs and the earlier AT&T Hobbit prototypes.
Useful for
- Run BeOS for PowerPC releases from Developer Release 6 to R5.0.3 without original hardware
- Boot the 1993-94 Hobbit prototype system from surviving disk images
- Install BeOS on a new disk image using the CD or floppy installer

Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-16 (UTC), 02:13–04:24: 5 → 9 stars (+4). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +13 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 1 day old and already has 9 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
