Reader “scott mc” wrote in to alert me to the significance of today’s date. AppleMatters.com is running a story on this day in 1997, the day when Steve Jobs officially returned to Apple (as a temporary advisor). It was a pivotal moment in the history of both Be and Apple, as it lead to Apple eventually releasing the NeXT-derived OS X and Be releasing the BeOS for x86. And now, nearly a decade later, we may even be able to run BeOS on Apple hardware again thanks to the Intel transition. Who would have guessed that, nine years ago?

P.S.
My blogging software lies, there are still 2 hours left in the 26th.
