Yeah, I really want the kernel I use for my scientific stuff to be "optimized" for office shit. OTOH, A different set of modules that IS office optimized might be nice.
Or one that has at least modularized widget wrappers, If this is the case why does officeXP look like winXP on win2K?

especially if they auto-hid seldom-used links like IE does.
This is one of the worst features MS has. Back when I used office I turned it off immediatly. I memorize where my bookmarks ( favorites? wtf? most of mine are stuff for work, hardly my "favorite" ) are so when "smart" (i.e. really frickin annoying )software hides them I am up shit creek withou a paddle. Also don't tell me that you don't like being able to open up an entire folder in tabs.
That's just the point. I work on open source software so attacking myself would be dumb. Also, the KDE team is nice, not some company with a history of making money off of other peoples stuff:
qdos --> msdos
NCSA Mosaic --> IE
Imagine if the GPL did not exist, what else would they have taken and marketed?
Also, what do you mean by 2) Windows is not the only desktop environment (duh!) I still can't get Enlightenment to compile on my windows box.
So my company is a private-non-profit research institute who won a large grant from IBM. That means that we had IBM come and install some big iron. And I worked with them to set up a DB2 server application, which is not yet released.
And when they sent me install instructions it was often pages of: ln -s, perl scripts ( some of which I wrote ), etc.
So if someone is laughing at your install instructions because it is *gasp* box specific, then they really don't know shite about how stuff actually gets done.
I don't trust any "installer" that requires something other than "tar xzvf" to use. ( although RPM can be nice sometimes if you haven't hosed your install yet ).
So the problem here is that if she gets like, 1000 songs ( theoretically ), I have to spend another $50 for the cds to transfer them, then spend a day or two putting cds into my drive as she takes them out of hers....that is a PITA.
name the DRM that impeads you.
you can do what ever you want with these songs that any resonable person will do
So I assume that "Reasonable People" does not include non-Mac users? So since my GF has a Mac and I have a el-cheapo homebrew linux box, and we currently share mp3's, now she will get this AAC BS and I will use WHAT to play it? That does not seem unreasonable.
OK,
I have installed RH9 at home and I can not get winex to run after gettng the CVS version....
I have tried using the
--with-nptl
option but now I still get weird errors about not having a ~/.wine/wineserver-computername/socket, and I have no idea what it actaully means, but if I run wineserver -p, it goes away. But when I run wine it just hangs and does nothing.
So can people please post how they got winex3.0 from CVS to work on RH9, and then play WC3?
Actually the Warforge project which is kinda the next gen of this project is doing very well, I am currently playing all of Warcraft3: The Frozen Throne - Beta, on their servers.
It depends on how clean the ber taps are at the Wingdome really, cause I can eat loads of hotwings without problems, unless the beer makes me sick.
Although I think that HotWings is actaully a great name. But I question the need when the plan is to roll Phoenis/Firebird/HotWings into SeaMonkey as the main browser component at which time it will be simply "Mozilla".....
I have a Cornea MP704 LCD, that works just fine for allmy gaming and home programming, I seem to get less eye strain than I do on my work 21" Sun monitor....and I only paid $500.

Disclaimer, I have not yet learned how to program in C/C++ ( I am a biochemist and Java suits the needs of a one-man show much better )
But I am thinking of learning C and the E stuff like Evas ( and the EProg extension ) are designed to make life really easy, so you can have a window with an image in it in less than a minute. I assume that I could still use the GTK+ tool kit for GUI work, but have the faster E stuff for the connections to X. So, in terms of it being a DE, I am excited and hope that the ideas go into other apps ( like GNOME/KDE ) for improving their speed.
That said, the BEST thing about E16 is the pager/iconbox combo. There is not a better way to manage your windows and virtual desktops, especially if you don't like panels everywhere. Once E17 has these features back ( late 2203 ) I will be very happy.
I will also relate that many of my coworkers look at my desktop and are using E16 by the end of the day. btw, check out the C2h8 theme. My favorite.

So who is going to port this to SWT? I really need a browser written in a cross-platform language that depends on platform-specific libraries.
As far as tab usage goes....
my desktop looks so much cooler without a big nasty bar at the bottom, since Enlightenment doesn't have one anyways.

You would be zippy to if you were loaded at startup and never taken out of memory, and had on OS desinged around you.
I am excited about not having to cast and make stupid class specific collections.
The point was really more that I like to be able to know what is happening, thus any of the examples you gave are better than a mystery "setup.exe".
but when those nice linux open source guys
