What makes BeOS and Haiku unique
That's a screenshot of BeOS, so the font rendering engine behind that is from 1998. Not very surprising, then :)

Those screenshots are DejaVu Sans, not Noto Sans, and with a different font rendering engine than the ones in this article. We should probably update those, though.

Ok, is there a screenshot from the current Haiku build?

D'oh, I had a haiku screenshot selected at first, but then I picked that one because it had more stuff on it. Didn't notice it was a BeOS one.
