IBM Picks Qtopia Over PalmOS And PocketPC

Bill Kendrick writes "ZDNet, Geek.com and others are reporting IBM's decision to choose Trolltech's Qtopia (the embedded version of their Qt library, used by the Sharp Zaurus PDA) in their forthcoming devices. See the announcement at Trolltech's website, and an earlier press release at IBM.com." Here's an earlier post about the new IBM reference platform.

    IMB is obviously a bunch of idiot mother fuckers because they turned down PalmOS which is the superior operating system of choice for all products that require an operating system and instead proceeded to choose this stupid Qtopia thing over the PalmOS operating system platform which I consider to be a very poor and stupid decision when you consider the fact that like I said before in this post somewhere that like PalmOS is like superior and shit when compared to this Qtopia thing that I have never seen before but neither have I seen that PalmOS thing as I have never used one of the devices that uses it but I think that it would be kind of cool if people like Sony and shit provided PalmOS preinstalled on your computer when you but it at the store instead of putting that stupid windows thing on there instead.
