So buy a commercial Qt license. These are still available have no GPL/LGPL in them.

One year after Nokia bought Trolltech, they've released Qt as LGPL. This positions Qt and KDE in an excellent position for cross-platform application development for FOSS *and* commercial projects. KDE libraries were already licensed under LGPL. This means the entire stack is now LGPL.
In the mean-time, Qt Creator, an IDE for developing Qt applications, has been announced. This will be all you need to write cross-platform applications with Qt.
Qt Jambi (java bindings for Qt) will also available under LGPL. Qyoto (mono bindings) and the other bindings (Perl, Python, Ruby) will be able to make releases under LGPL now.
Think of all the money the other industries can save by reducing the cost of software. Also code literacy will go up when the code is more visible. A population the knows how to program well, is very useful and can benefit other industries. Right know you know about computers when you know where to click in a windows user interface. When more people use FOSS, it will be easier for them to fix code and improve it to do as they want. When this mindset takes hold, it will become more normal to be able to code.
I'm using VirtualBox to run 32 bit Windows XP on a 64-bit Linux machine. VirtualBox 2.0 runs really well for me. I'm glad I can use an open-source package for this.
There was a man named Napoleon who went to visit Russia in 1812. This is what happened there. He went with an army of 690k men and came back with one of 22k men. In addition, about a million Russian civilians were killed.
This was the 19th century, you were probably talking about the wars that took place before the French revolution, such as the seven years war that took 0.9-1.4M lives.
Merging the efforts of Nepomuk and new file systems like brtfs are the way to go with this. Handling of file events can be done better than what we have now with inotify. File systems should allows plugins to update indexes on files within the file system structure and file systems should allow queries and query monitors directly.
DBPedia shows the power of SPARQL and implementing an efficient storage for it into a file system is the first step forward. Then user interfaces in GNOME and KDE can take advantage of the queries that are currently very expensive to do.
Ubuntu is in a good position to help out on the Nepomuk effort. Mandriva is already sponsoring this work. More support for this desktop-independent project would be a boon for achieving the file system Mark is looking for.
Git is not well supported on Windows like Subversion is with turtoiseSVN. There is no good integration in Eclipse or Netbeans. The workflow is more complicated and enterprise tools such as Jira and Confluence do not support it.
These things may improve but right now, Git is not very well suited for use in corporate environments.
Each day, I bike 14 kilometers to work and 9 miles back. This is a great time for planning and evaluating the day. On a bike you are active and awake because of the wind and the required exercise. On my bike I think about programming strategies, past and future social interactions, planning my commercial/proprietary and Free software activities or the odd real-life subject. When I get to work I change my shirt and answer my email; the routine kicks in. During the day I'll have lulls in motivation for the boring tasks during which I'll work out the ideas I had whilst biking. If it's a bad day, there's little time for that and I'm steered from meeting to meeting, answering dumb emails, chasing people for facilities and fixing bugs. On a good day, I'll have time to really get some beautiful coding done. On such a day I'll think about the code on my way home and will have more great ideas I'll work on in the evening. Depending on the mood and challenge the evening code is for 'real' work or for FOSS.
Taking a walk during/after lunch helps creativity too.
If you do not like flash, Thereis alot ofniceSVGaround. All of these examples work well under Firefox 3.0 or Opera 9. Perhaps also on other browsers. It took SVG a long time (spec is from around 2000), but it is seeing more adoption now.
How is this special? The Nokia N810 has a faster processor and comes with GPS, wifi, keyboard and 640 x 480 screen. Storage space can be added to exceed that of the Space Cube.

And even better: if you lose the file, the person that finds it can mail it back to you!
What's the package name? A link would be nice.

Have a human jazz band playing and let a computer or a human do the solos. The jury should not be able to distinguish between them.
What's wrong with ctrl-z and 'fg'?
Or go to visual mode with 'v' or 'V', scroll down and press 'd'.
!cat
!uniq
!sort
!sort -n
!ls
!bash
It all works. This is brilliant! I've using vim for years and did not know this.

Here are two pages with some fancy animated SVG.

Can you point me to the source code of the original wheel?

Get an N810 with USB to VGA converter. I saw them in action at the maemo summit in Berlin and it works great for doing presentations.

No, he used a shark shaped sub (before the invention of the laser).
My bad, I mixed up the screen resolution (800x480) with the camera resolution (640x480).
