i see you have a knack for exaggerations, considering i have used ALL that software and know your telling a blatant lie, i don't know why your not modded down to a troll, secondly the articles about gnome, not kde
my school (a public school) upgrades there computers every year, right now they have p4 1.5 ghz comps, last year they had p3 933mhz comps, i think your schools is just getting a bad deal with the state government, there not giving you enough loving, either that or they decided to divert funds elsewhere. personally i think my schools upgrade cycle is quite a wast of money!
i find the best thing is self education, eg. go get yourself some programming books, write programs, look at major projects and see if you can make modifications, learn that way, you don't always need someone spoon feeding you, in fact you won't have someone there after you leave high school, now is a better time to start than ever!
maybe its my tendency to preemptively interpret a sentence prior to concluding my reading of it, bit i read that as burning (tourching, flaming) linux cds, for an anti-christ type effect
btw, does anyone know of a review for "revolution os" or know of when it will come to australia?
When I first read this, I thought Oracle (the company, funny that, there's and ad for them above) and was adopting Delphi (Borland's "Object Pascal") for use somehow. Maybe I'm just confused.
...but i can actually vouch for this, a girl put me down right before a maths test, i pretty much stuff that one over. finally someone has proven what i've known for years, i think its more psychological though, because you start to believe you just suck at it all and you don't have as much confidence, etc.
funny that, complete install not including server parts, took 1 hour and 30 mins on my comp, windows xp took 40 minutes to install and i didn't have a quarter of the configuration demands, i love linux, but they still have a long way to go before hitting mainstream desktop usage.
windows xp being the next best thing since windows 95 (sliced cheese)? Have they already forgotten what they said? Was it just a waste of our time, should we be really looking towards this newer windows for true innovation? looks like business as usual to me
i was backing my data on to another hard drive, and when i was putting the hard drive back (it was an old uncovered one) i forced it in to the drive bay and it popped off a capacitor (oops), i had my friends resolder it on though:)
then again i'm an idiot enough to flash my bios from windows (i swear the computer wouldn't reboot to dos, good thing i use linux now and there ain't no more bios updates for this motherboard), ah well:)
i'm one of those people who don't use swap space, my rationale is this, its sped up my computer activity a lot, i have a relatively slow computer (350) and i forked out $35 for another 256meg ram, now i have 384 and i feel its the best thing i've done. sure i don't use my entire ram on one program, but for general acitivity i find i only end up using about 128meg ram (lotsa programs working) and i get a lot of hard drive cache space so those mp3s keep rolling in. for a few dollars if i can be a lot more comfortable with my systems performance, why not? i have a 60 gig hard drive, but i bought it to store data not as temporary memory.
Maybe they should call it Event Orientated Programming, sound more like functions can capture events and execute on the context of the event. You could hook this in to C++ (tho not very cleanly), but it sounds sort of similar to what QT's moc does to QT C++ code.
i think we need a more fundamental cross platform structure, OpenGL/OpenML/OpenAL combined with input and some other candy to form OpenXL or something of the sort? and maybe have real C++ bindings (do i have to call 3f?)
okay, so intel are switching to ddr ram, yet rambus is the only ram that can deliver the bandwidth required, could somebody explain to me why this is a good businesss decision?
I would have said the OpenGL non-support issues under windows were more of an anti-competitive move by microsoft, if they offer the features people want in direct3d but cripple the opengl interface, well what would you rather use?
i don't know how you can say this which such a fine counter example, the KDE team work beautifully together, that's the kind of action you should be getting in to.
C# isn't really an evolution rather a devolution of C++, they are trying to meet 2 different goals.
J2EE and.NET are platforms with very narrow goals, development goes on elsewhere in the world, and would you believe it, neither Java or C# are used in the majority of code out there.
he makes some snide comments about KDE and refuses to acknowledge that there are quite a few power users (otherwise we wouldn't be up to those speeds), believe it or not, games sell systems. no wonder the games industry makes more money than the movie industry.
i still believe amd is sitting tight more because of the instability of there cpus (i'm an amd fan) rather than because of the stability.
i think your counting your chickens before there hatched, no one has that much foresight.

what is oracle really trying to achieve with this? i mean how does it help business?

Well they don't call them BitBoys Oy for no reason, as we Australian's say when we've been pulled a swifty "OY!", with a ginger temprement.
i believe flat shading is the most primitive shading method

ReiserFS is already trying to do this, i believe it has been part of Hans Reiser's goals for a long time
They don't call it windows for nothing, see through everything, security issues again, will they keep up there promise, is this anti-trust?

yup, he's the closest thing to god we have

why does it not seem like a good idea to me? maybe i'm just getting to old, worrying about steel balls being lodged in my head, oh well!
