No, BeOs appears to be an unsupported orphan. Guess it never made
the "critical mass" to survive. For that matter "personalStudio", at least
the BeOs version, also appears to be an unsupported orphan.

"Edmumd" doesn't seem to understand the roles of the operating system
(BeOS) vs. the layered application(s) (personalStudio). The OS likely
plays *no* direct role in your ability to impose text on video.

You should be grateful that it continues to work. Hope you have all
the backup and re-installation discs since you seem to be running an
orphan application on an orphan operating system. :-((
