It's not like they are offering Linux instead of their primary OS (Irix and HP-UX). If you read the article, it states that they will be offering the option of Linux as an OS for their Intel computers.
This is not their "top of the line" systems. We are talking about PCs and workstations like the SGI Visual Workstation.
The day they offer Linux for their high end systems, I will be thoroughly impressed. I believe this is a possibility. Go Linux!
When develoing software with CodeWarrior, I don't have to remember the different -W flags to turn warnings off -- I go to the "C/C++ Warnings" panel in the Project Settings and click on checkboxes. When adding a source file to a project, I can just click on the targets I want it added to. To check in a modified file, I just select it in the project window and choose "Check In" from a menu. I never have to touch or even think about a makefile, because the IDE does dependency tracking for me.
I see. You don't want to learn anything extra? BTW, autoconf and makedepend are both usefull tools.
Checking in and out can be done in just about any Unix editor. I use Nedit and have ClearCase integrated in where I can do just about any ClearCase command just from the menus.
In other words, it lets me focus almost completely on writing code.
Doesn't look like you are now ;)
The only problem with it is that the project file format's not open. But to me, it's not a big problem...
Umm...how could missing a prototype possibly cause problems at run-time?

I could see someone playing QuakeII with one of these. --Dodging his head back and forth as hyperblaster shots zing by!

Yes, but we are comparing to C here.
