PMD is decent but really not all that useful in the grand scheme of things. Two tools are absolutely critical at my workspace:
checkstyle - enforce a coding style. We integrate this into our SCM system so people can't check in unless their code meets the official style. It's draconian but our codebase would have 12 different styles and be close to unreadable without it.
SmartBear's CodeCollaborator - a tool which makes code reviews easy. This is a necessity when working with junior developers on another continent. I can't speakly highly enough about this program - it's commercial but worth every penny.
That's funny because your comments appear to be nothing but marketing. Would you please post a link to a single website that has the Nitrus 2 for sale?
One point that no one has picked up on yet is the fact that the iMow takes 10 times longer to mow the same patch of land as a human-controlled mower. This means it takes 10 times more power and thus would probably cause more emissions than even a normal gas mower.
I got a Black and Decker CMM1000; it works quite well and appeases the environmentalist in me.
In the time it took you to write all these posts you could have rewritten the code from scratch. I've written Base64 converters in java before and it's no more than 30-40 lines.
Not only that but because it's a utility method with well-defined pre/post conditions it would be trivial to put a complete junit test suite around it so you can be assured it works.
I believe windows only turns DMA on for the first IDE channel by default. If you are transfering from one channel to another, you might be using PIO mode on one channel and that will definitely slow you down. Go to the properties for your IDE hardware and verify that both channels are using DMA if available.
Perhaps I'm missing the point? Why bother with Sun hardware if you are just going to run linux on it? x86 is much better supported and will be faster and cheaper to upgrade. If you are going to use sun hardware, you should not be concerned about the price of a 3d card.

I've used both in previous jobs for source code control. This is obviously different in that the files and projects are small (megabytes, not gigabytes).
Clearcase cost a LOT of money and takes quite a bit more administration. For your trouble, you get file locking. Yes, that is sarcasm. No one on the team who was using it at the time liked it.
cvs simply requires a little more developer time to do file merging. I personally really like it.

good luck.

Why would MS promote a pseudo-open API when their proprietary API is the standard in gaming now?
