"BeSD/OS2" would work one more OS in there, distancing it from BSD, but
still pronounced the same. And opening it up to the possible wrath of
Be's lawyers. Fortunately copyright law allows use for parody. So
everyone is safe as long as we're discussing it for chuckles.

>From what little I've heard of G2, it and BeOS have more than a little 
in common. Both are re-thinks and re-writes with the goals of breaking 
traditional barriers.
