For those interested in computing history there has been a slow movement towards "liberating" old Byte columns which sat behind a paywall for no good reason.

The latest freed work is the BeView column by Scot Hacker which is now archived in its totality here:

Note that BeOS "lives on" as Haiku (http://haiku-os.org/) and its most amazing feature at the time was the multitasking "smoothness" allowing multiple video streams to play at the same time.
