BeBox

The BeBox is a multiprocessing personal computer that was briefly sold by Be, Inc. to run the company's own operating system, BeOS. It has dual PowerPC CPUs, its I/O board has a custom "GeekPort", and the front bezel has "".

The BeBox Dual603-66 made its debut on October 3, 1995. The processors were upgraded to 133 MHz for the BeBox Dual603-133, which was released on August 5, 1996. Production was halted in January 1997, following the port of BeOS to the Power Macintosh and Power Computing clones, so that the company could concentrate on software. Be sold around a thousand 66 MHz BeBoxes and eight hundred 133 MHz BeBoxes.

Be, Inc. founder Jean-Louis Gassée did not see the BeBox as a general consumer device, warning that "Before we let you use the BeBox, we believe you must have some aptitude toward programming — the standard language is ."

Configurations
Initial prototypes are equipped with two processors and three AT&T 9308S s.

Production models use two 66 MHz PowerPC 603 processors or two 133 MHz PowerPC 603e processors to power the BeBox. Prototypes having dual 200 MHz CPUs or four CPUs exist, but were never made publicly available. {| style="width:100%;font-size:90%;line-height:135%;"
