I agree with some of what you say but wanted to ask slashdot readers in general about addressing some of them. First, I agree that java is soooo completely slow. I started writting a ICQ clone in it for a learning hobby. So far, the writting the code has been a breeze. Yet, it is really too slow to enjoy. I would love to use QT. I figure by the time I need to write commercial apps that Harmony will be finished. So the license is not a problem for me. If I could ever write anything that would be big enough to sell, I'd buy a license so don't go there:) Anyway, I have read their tutorials but I cannot find enough doc to get the ball rolling. For instance, the SLOT() stuff. Other than the examples in the tutorials, I cannot find anything. Do you know of a good source for learning such things? My language of choice is C++ and I looked into GTK--, but it looked like a horrible wrapper. Java will still be my choice for web interfaces (obviously) but for normal (everyday) apps, it just isn't cutting it. I've got the QT book on order but I dont' want to wait. Help anyone?

Yes, I had this similar discussion not long ago with reguard to Emacs. It seems to be a web brouser, e-mail client, news reader, word processing, programmer's editor, that adds up to about 12Megs I think?
I'm not trying to start the "VI" vs "Emacs" war up, so please don't flame. But what are you opinions on all these features in a single app?
This is the first version of Mozilla I have actually tried. I'm impressed. It is quite stable and fast considering it has soooo much bebug code in it. Good work guys!

I can't believe anyone would publish this book.
This author needs to be educated.
