''Not be confused with the [[BarOS]] lineup of systems.''
There are no major differences between the two versions, though progress is separate between each version. To unlock B OS, you must collect 3 million points after unlocking [[BAR/X]].▼
▲'''
* PC version, available on [[Progressbar (system line)|Progress Computer (PC)]]
* BC version, available on [[BarOS|Progresh]]
▲There are no major differences between the two versions, though progress is separate between each version. To unlock B OS, you must collect 3 million points in [[BarOS]] after unlocking [[BAR/X]].
According to the about window, the system is on version 1.8b and was released in 1996 by Byte. Within the about window there is also a button reading "Teapot test". Clicking it will bring a spinning Utah teapot along with the current CPU and GPU being used and the FPS the teapot is moving at.

== Trivia ==
* This is the only system available both on Progress Computer and Progresh.
** This is because BeOS was made for both PowerPC and x86 architectures.
* The voice in the startup sound says "Be happy”.<ref>https://twitter.com/Progressbar95/status/1624207831451725829</ref>
* This is the only system that doesn't have a way to explore files in any form, despite BeOS being able to.
* This system is based on BarOS 8, despite running on the Progresh Power 9000 in the BC kernel.
** The only BarOS 8 assets that remain are the Filer folder icons, Leaderboard icon, social icons, Clippy's default character asset, and the Remove Ads icon.
* Oddly enough, in the PC kernel, the [[Mailbox]] "That is my little baby!" easter egg still remains, just harder because the little paperclip is invisible.
* Teapot test is based on GLTeapot, a graphic demo from BeOS.
* B OS (PC kernel) and [[Progressbar Chitown]] are the only Progressbar systems to not feature ScanProgress.
* B OS (BC kernel) is the only BarOS system to not feature Progress Ambulance.
* B OS (PC kernel) is the only Progressbar system to not have [[ProgressDOS]].
* B OS (BC kernel) is the only BarOS system to not have a file manager or terminal.
* In the [[BarOS 14|BarOS 14 Sonant]] teaser, the BarOS boot menu has B OS unlocked but with BAR/X being locked.
* In B OS, if [[Bin]] is full, he will have yellow balls with black circles or stripes inside. This is a reference to the bee, which is an insect that shares its name pronunciation with the first part of the system's name: '''B''' OS.
* When the marker is in the red area in the overclock minigame, only the PC version of B OS's wallpapers are changed to red.
* B OS has the taskbar on the left side of the screen, but BeOS has the taskbar is on the right side.
