thats the secret of Lisp tho... you really dont have to worry about parenthesis... obeying good indentation rules and the whole program source code just FLOWS (more Lisp editors have parenthesis matching functions while you type (as most IDEs do for C, C++, etc)).
Lisp programs can be so short that almost no typing gives instant gratification, but thats not what programming should be about. A properly taught Lisp course in a Jr High could get the students WAY ahead of the kids trying to obey syntax rules in C, Pascal or BASIC.
They will have already learned the algorithms for, asy, parsing lists (or whatever) and can apply these lessons to their C programs, their C++, their Java, etc. Chances are they will come back to Lisp/Scheme often though because of its simplicity.
i really think that Lisp, or better yet, Scheme, is the way to go for teaching kids to program. it teaches algorythms etc, rather than structure (which changes from language to language)

2. because the new GUI beats the HELL out of X. BUT if you REALLY want it im sure there will be a layer added sooner or later, or just pure X, with Aqua stuff disabled at boot time
3. as seen in answer 2, you should be able to not start up the macos x gui...but WHY?:P What apps do you regularly use in X that you wouldnt prefer to run in Aqua? Certainly, maybe SOME apps, like some rare thing you really didnt want to spend the time porting to mosx, but really, its SUCH a nicer environment to run in. Maybe as a server youd want to set the system up with th mosx GUI, then kill all the graphics processes, run X and maybe 1 or 2 xterms and admin it that way:) Im sure people will figure out how to do that. As far as framebuffer support, I dont see why not -------------------------------------------

>omehow, American society has been programmed to be hyper-sensitive to the feelings of minorities, gays, and females, yet we can still ridicule conservatives, Christians, and their values with impunity.
Yes, that's because for so long the conservatives and (some not all) christians we're telling gay jokes or hispanic or black jokes at the targeted groups' expense. Maybe some feel its a sort of retribution to be able to have enough people around that one can rag on christians and conservatives and get away with it. "They've had it coming to them", and for some time now.
C'mon Chris, just because everyone at VA gets to use linux as their main OS (as do I where I werk) doesn't mean that there isn't at least 100 mac desktop users and 1000 win-dos desktop (l)users for every linux desktop user (these are of course just numbers I'm throwing out as guesses). Even tho you can go and buy a copy of RH, Mandrake etc at Frys or wherenot, doesn't mean that lots of people ARE doing it for their home desktop (especuially people like my mom who just PREFERS Macs)
Well I think Bill G., Steve B. et al have repeated to themselves that "We support innovation" that they may really believe it now. Either they really believe it, or they're just B.S.ing because they know they don't really support any kind of innovationg (at least they keep their lies sonsistent!:P)
why the fsck did you pick C as your language of choice for GNOME? There are a ton of other languages out there that are much more suitable for GUI development than C. Do you plan on overhauling the whole GNOME code base at any time in another laguage (im sure C++ would be picked, whether or not it deserves to be)?

*beats head against keyboard* has NOONE here heard of DriverKit/IOKit? you write your drivers in ObjC using generic classes they have already written, and just extend off of those classes with your own, and apparently drivers can be designed/written in relatively little time with very few people involved (good driver/system coders of which Im sure Apple has many.) Even though there are a ton of different types of hardware for peecee's, DriverKit drivers could (if people had the interest) come out very quickly and frequntly Also, they dont own Mach (last *I* checked anyway) and Mach has existed on x86 much longer than it has for PowerPC, so getting Darwin and even all of OSX on x86 is a non-issue, assuming Apple would release it

Some religeons are designed in such a way that power can corrupt it's orginal meaning...and programming languages can be designed to do good things but can be used for evil (can we say 'pointers'?;) ).
Other religeons are a lot looser in their attitude towards life and reality vs dogma, and what is considered EVIL diminishes, and people are free to BE good rather than act how they they are told they should act (and think and talk etc)
(thats why i like Taoism [though its not really a religeon], really its anything you make of it, and the only thing to be sure of is that you're probably not right...remember you can believe anything you want; the universe isnt obliged to take you seriously:).)
Really, its all about the people involved, at which point the religeon becomes irrelevent and people's behavior is based on the virtue of compassion (not to burn other people or at the stake, or likewise not to write virii etc)
Talking about faith, the average concept of faith is believing maybe in some higher power or silly materialistic things like living in the clouds after you die and angles with harps etc. Faith doesnt mean BLIND faith, just I guess trying to do what you feel is right... just act natural and things will fall into place
Okay im done... i know this is news for nerds, not news for theologians or philosophers (altho based on the posts im sure there are quite a few amatures and professionals of the latter set):)

the point of this is for EMBEDDED systems, not for desktop systems. Qt apps will all ready work, as they should be 100% source compatible (as if there was such a thing:P) and KDE could be ported quite quickly to it, but again its NOT a desktop system, its meant for like ATM machines and stuff like that... you can still run your gtk C apps all you want on your desktop system...besides, its not like Linux FORCES you to upgrade:) you can do it if you WANT to
