I remember seeing the final BeOS live demo on the final day of the MacWorld Expo where it premiered.

It blew my mind. Things we take for granted now like multiple QuickTimes running at the same time, all the massive concurrency... Live searches of the filesystem via journaling... All way before its time (or at least, way before it appeared in mainstream OS'es).

What I wonder is, is Haiku more efficient than other available OS'es at Intel (or other, like ARM) CPU utilization?
