It's function headers like these that give commenting a bad name.
The first TEN lines of the function header and the first sentence of the description add NO additional information over the actual function header. All of this is worthless.
Doxygen, in my experience, is not worth the effort.
Sure, if your project requires that you generate a stack of documentation, doxygen is better than the alternatives.
But the best documentation is well-written code. Comments should only be used when absolutely necessary, which is maybe 10% of what doxygen requires. Search on Refactoring for more details.
StarOffice compatibility just isn't good enough to be relied upon in a commercial enterprise. At my previous company, we resorted to Acrobat whenever Office files had to be read under FreeBSD.
Changing Office files under FreeBSD meant running Citrix. Office for FreeBSD would remove the need for Windows to appear on a large number of desktops.
In Sydney, we have reliable power. When I moved to California I was shocked at the frequency of blackouts and the general terrible state of the electrical infrastructure.
The crisis in California clearly demonstrates that hippie attitudes - such as "conserve in all areas of life" - are totally divorced from reality.
The solution for California is:
1. Let companies build power stations
2. Free the retail price of electricity
Hasn't anyone over there got any idea of basic micro economics?
This was on the Samsung stand and it was definitely analog. I can't stand analog - it looks terrible compared to a digitally connected TFT (like a laptop) or even a decent monitor. The blurred pixels are just too annoying.
According to the specs the screen has a digital interface but I'll believe it when I see it.
They had one of these at Digital Media World in Sydney this week.
On close examination, you could see that the vertical in the letter 'I' in Microsoft Word was blurred across two pixels. So clearly it was an analog connection.
Digital interfaces are the solution. The Apple widescreen monitor, which uses a digital interface, was the most common monitor at the show.
Yes, Avantgo on the Palm has ads.
One line of text, a link to a full page that has also downloaded. I've clicked on maybe 5% of these as the product has been relevant.
Which is a lot better ratio than the web.

IE 4 and NS 4 are both around 10%. This means they can't be ignored. But if they fall a few percentage points more marketing will forget abot them (this happened to VGA screen sizes).

McDonalds do sell apples. Real ones; healthy food.

mackido is the least reliable and most biased source of computer history information you will find.
Xerox invented the GUI. Apple made minor improvments, such as a single menu bar.

The second and third sentences have some meaning.

This is misleading and wrong. Browser statistics work fine.

Spoofing is done all the time, the user agent still allows detection of the actual browser.

Graphics Programming Black Book Special Edition.
It covers design choices, tradeoffs, speed enhancements - exactly what you asked for.
It goes into detail on graphics programming in DOS, and into detail on the Quake game engine.
Objective-C would limit your platform to Mac OSX and NextStep. Not a wide market.
Games are written in C++ these days. Portability is more important than productivity only on Mac OSX.

Would it be possible for someone to use this work to create a fix for these people?
It's great, works fine over modems.
These devices are technically superior to the existing Ipaq. In an internal company shootout, the technically superior device will win.
So the new HP will only sell the new Jornadas. Which will then succeed.
It's a pity, because I prefer the style of the Ipaq. Of course, more memory is always better.
No, they are planning to fix the bugs, and sell the bug-fixed version.
So your choice is free buggy software or expensive reliable software.
What I would like is a
"NEVER trust content from XXX Corporation"
But somehow I don't think Microsoft will provide that feature.
The Guardian is an anti-technology left wing newspaper.
So I presume at full resolution the only choice is analog. Which is just not good enough.

This problem has pretty much been solved in LCDs. Now the remaining problem is colour quality.

TheCounter.com Browser statistics
The big problem is that Netscape 4 still has around 9% of the market - this needs to fall further before it can be ignored.
VGA resolution didn't get ignored until it was around 8%.
Windows 3.1 users may have problems, but they are only about 0.1% of the web browsing population.
That's the idea of this program - with the additional feature of known broken browsers get told to upgrade.
