No. They said they could/were going to, but haven't (The iPhone developer TOS don't permit 3rd party virtual machines). The iPhone ARM processor actually supports native java bytecode execution. Hopefully, Apple will offer an iPhone with android on it (maybe dual boot?). That would easily double or triple their sales.
Apple works hard to ensure that applications written to OS X will not easily be ported to other platforms.
Just like KDE works hard to ensure that applications written for KDE aren't easily ported to other APIs? And GNOME works hard to ensure that applications written for GTK aren't easily ported to other APIs? And X.org works hard to ensure that applications written for xlib aren't easily ported to other APIs? And Be works hard to ensure that applications written for belib aren't easily ported to other APIs? And Microsoft works hard to ensure that applications written for Win32 aren't easily ported to other APIs? And Sun works hard to ensure that applications written for Swing aren't easily ported to other APIs? And Open Group works hard to ensure that applications written for Motif aren't easily ported to other APIs? And QNX works hard to ensure that applications written for Photon aren't easily ported to other APIs? And Donald Knuth works hard to ensure that documents written for TeX aren't easily ported to other markup languages? And Intel works hard to ensure that x86 assembly code isn't easily ported to other architectures? And Toyota works hard to ensure that gasoline-powered internal combustion engines can't easily run on hydrogen?
We all know that most routers use Linux, usually an old kernel that won't/can't be upgraded. I'm wondering if they are intentionally exploiting a bug in the linux TCP/IP stack to cause crashes/instability/etc. With MS trying to get in on the phone/embedded device market, they could license NT/IIS for router usage and make some serious cash.
Not yet, but it will. The Cocoa/Linux Integration Framework (CLIF) is a project (currently in alpha) based on GNUStep, but with a goal of source *and* binary compatability with OS X/Cocoa. There's a lot of work and some kernel modules may be needed, but we're optimistic at the current progress.
Gimp should be rewritten to use OpenStep/Cocoa/GNUStep rather than GTK. Cocoa has very good color space facilities builtin and doesn't look like ass (the 2 biggest problems with gimp!). OS X and GNUStep are making huge inroads. Meanwhile, Photoshop on OS X is poorly integrated and a 64-bit version won't be available for 3-4 years. And a linux version may never be released (and even if it is, it won't be FREE!).
Most computers come with flash preloaded. I don't know why you'd be browsing the web or watching videos/web comics/ads/etc on a server computer. Maybe they're trying to dumb diwn ti compete with Windows Server 2008.
Everything could change. For example, the 75% of voters who don't like hilldog will vote for McCain. And 30 years of clinton shit (from cattle futures to pardons) will stink up the cable news 24/7.
I'm a conservative/libertarian and I'll be voting for Obama as well (I'd rather be voring for Ron Paul or Fred Thompson).
Why? John McCain. Campaign Finance Reform. Open Broders. Keating 5. That old person smell. On issues that matter to me, John McCain gets it wrong. Barack Obama might also get it wrong but 1) he's not (yet) part of the washington culture and 2) republicans in congress will start acting conservative.
Preview (OS X), foxit (windows), and xpdf/kpdf/gpdf/ghostview/etc all view pdfs much better than Adobe's PDF viewer. That's competition on 100% of tha platforms adobe is on (give or take cell phones). If Adobe's feeling the pressure, they aren't showing it.

That dodge was probably made in Canada.
kindle ebooks (generally $9.99) are cheaper than hardcover ($20+), but more expensive than paperback.
The printable version
GNUStep.
They could be using J# on the server.

However, you will need to worry about gcc dropping support for your cpu/architecture.

BeOS tried that. NeXT tried that. IBM (OS/2) tried that. It doesn't work.
OS X 10.5 (intel) is certified Unix.

ssl certs require a dedicated ip address, so most virtual hosted sites can't.
If your employer monitors http activity and you use google finance (or yahoo, or anything unencrypted), they'll know every stock you looked at.

oh yeah, kdawson. Go figure. From the article title: "Its not X86, but who cares?"
I use a Model M (unicomp USB) with my Macintosh. Zero nostalgia, zero aesthetics -- the decision is based 100% on quality and personal preferences.
My brokerage website is encrypted. google finance isn't.
Must be ancient chinese recipe.
i just started not caring about rails 2.0!
according to the slashdot community, it's been the year of the linux desktop since 1999. And nobody wants an ipod since it doesn't support ogg vorbis.
