You don't need to use IE to run.NET applications. Ours run just fine in Mozilla Firefox, thank you! Mozilla even seems to support some aspects better than IE - e.g. the border styling in a DataGrid.
You DO have to use an MS server to run.NET, but that's a different point, surely?
The recent activity in Linux kernel development caused by the introduction of a new scheduler by Ingo Molnar has emphasized for ordinary Linux users the importance of schedulers in modern operating systems. This article gives you a glimpse of what scheduling development is like by letting you implement your own Linux scheduler thanks to Bossa, a framework for scheduler development.
