Nope you don't - here is a quote from your link: FreeMarker is not a Web application framework. It is suitable for a component in a Web application framework,
That's actually one of its best features. Think about it. It can be used ANYWHERE. Even for configuration files. It just reads objects stored on a data model and lets you do stuff with them.
But people use it especially as a replacement for JSP. Check the a href="http://freemarker.sourceforge.net/docs/pgui_ misc_servlet.html">docs.
Why would i use a framework that is just limited to the web, where Freemarker works as good on the web as anywhere else? J2EE isn't just for web anymore, you know...
Just go the whole java way - use something like tapestry:httpjakartaapacheorgtapestry Throw away the the parameter parsing and the buggy nightmare that is scripting languages imbedded in html.
That's way too many frameworks. I just use one of them, it's called Freemarker, check it out. Lots of features, decent speed, very easy to use and great documentation. Sure puts JSP to shame. I used it on my forum software with ldap authentication (shameless plug) and it made my life easier.
If you can't, try explaining your boss. If he still doesn't like it, and if you don't mind much that paycheck (how much) then you at least gave your best effort.

Proper use of "loose"? No spelling errors?
Dude, this review is the most unsuitable one you could have done for us.
It's much cheaper to buy the memory elsewhere, like 50% cheaper, and dead easy to install if you aren't stoned
The point is, that you shouldn't have to. You are buying a very high-end 3000$ machine, and it comes with the same size of RAM 1000$ PC's do. You are also getting a 2 year old video card.
IMHO only the bottom line power mac should come with 512MB, the middle one perhaps 768 or more and so on, and they should come with GF6800 Ultras.
Under this current system, you walk into an Apple store with your DVD, pay the $10 and they hand you the CDs instead.
My only problem with this solution, is that it shouldn't cost a dime. If you buy tiger on dvd and need cd's, simply exchange the dvd for the cd's. Penalizing customers because they don't have dvd/want cd's is a crime.
Here's the one and only thing you need to know to understand Apple: Our goal is to make using your Mac a pleasant experience. Anything that takes away from that is our enemy.
Do you REALLY think that having to send your tiger dvd, pay 10 dollars and wait for the cd's to arrive is better than waste 10 seconds to swap cd's?
Now, you said the apple stores have the cd's. So if they have them, why not put them on the shelfs?
75% of the mac population don't have dvd's and then you make tiger dvd only by default? How big is the percentage number of those 75% that have hardware capable of installing tiger? If that number is anything bigger than 25%, then making tiger dvd by default was a mistake - swapping or not.
f you have more than one hard drive or partitions, it's trivial to run the installer from the opened dmg without ever having to burn or run a DVD.
I am new to macs, but my powerbook came with one hard disk and only 1 big partition. Disk Utility says it can't partition a hard drive with the System in it, so the help suggests to run Disk Utility from your mac install dvd. I don't know if then it would allow people to repartition without erasing their old OS. If it does, then i guess it could be installed, otherwise they would have to kill their hard drive making 2 partitions, including their OS, so they couldn't copy the tiger iso over to get it installed.
So they would need to make the partitions, install panther, copy the tiger iso, boot from the panther dvd install and then use Restore and in order to boot from the virtual tiger dvd, and MAYBE it would allow you to install.
Apple only will sell Tiger on DVD. If you want it on CD, you have to send your dvd copy and pay an extra 10$ for them to send you cd's.
The torrent copy can't be burned on toaster, you need to use Disk Utility and have a DVD burner, so this means most people with only 1 mac machine and no dvd burner can't install tiger.
So this cuts piracy, i don't know how much, but maybe over half of the potencial user base.
If you have a benchmark that compares the two VMs in a similar setup (e.g. Blackdown 1.4.2 HotSpot Client VM vs. Sun 1.4.2 HotSpot Client VM on the same machine) and Blackdown loses, then please mail me a link.
You are right, the benchmarks i saw are old. I don't really understand what the blackdown project is about, since other than having ports (the most useful would be the ppc port since java on mac linux is only done otherwise by ibm). The most recent java benchmark i have seen is here yet they don't address blackdown (but it says it was evaluated)
You guys need more marketing:) How about publishing those benchmarks? Or would that break a NDA or something?
Next up we will see how sex lower people's IQ. Imaging you're answering questions in front of naked marketing chicks.
That depends of who you ask. If you ask George, he will tell you he learned Brazilian Portuguese in only an afternoon. If you ask Elaine, she would just say "what"?
Really? That is interesting. On all benchmarks i have seen, blackdown is the slowest of all JVM's. I guess the amd port should be good if Sun used it, or otherwise they just wanted to get any version amd64 compatible. I have always stayed far away from blackdown because of this, but really haven't tested it with servlet development, which is what i currently use.
Because: *1.4 works fine. *Mac version is 1.4 *No java plugin on 1.5 for amd64 *Eclipse's stable version needs 1.4 *Java 1.5 sucks, because of bad implementations of stuff like generics. See here for info.
What are you talking about?!? Go to http://java.sun.com and click on "J2SE 5.0". Then click on "JDK 5.0 Update 2" and accept the license agreement. Right there are four packages for AMD64
Sadly, there is no 1.4 version, which is the one i need/want. Only for the dead IA64 platform
There's a saying in spanish "mas vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer" which roughly translates to "better something bad that is known than something good that is unknown" (don't know if there is some saying in english similar to it)
People are scared of trying new things, especially management types. Increasing the complexity of a system by installing other in parallel can get, er, complex. Linux can be installed for free, but no support.
People will prefer to pay for windows than to pay for support and training to use alternatives.
The author's contention is that Yahoo! has caught up to Google in nearly aspect, and have surpassed them in several areas.
I read that article.
Says yahoo mail has the same 1gb space. Now gmail has 2, and even if it didn't, gmail is better
Says yahoo maps is better because it has live traffic. I tried it out, and got the same map image with or without the traffic indicator. So i guess i had bad luck
Developer tools. I don't use them so i don't know if yahoo's are better
Yahoo has movie search. But IIRC, google announced that too some days ago
Better research labs. Yes, yahoo seems to announce researchers and lets you download papers. It has yet to be seen if the stuff they can cook up with is better than google's. So far, i like google maps better and google suggest
Search is still google's strength. I went to the yagoohoogle site, and searched for itself. Guess which search was better? Google's number 1 link was yagoohoogle, yahoo was some weird site talking about it
iBATIS looks at first glance like Teh suck. Where's the basic documentation?
Look harder. There is a developer guide (pdf), a generic guide (pdf) and a tutorial (pdf) on the "downloads" page.
So far everything i have ever wanted is on there. Granted, i would have preferred html documentation and javadocs, but so far i haven't needed to look at the source
For those of us that want a simpler, faster, easier to use framework and just want to map your own queries to objects, is much better. And for those that like.NET it is available in that platform too.
Here's an example on how to execute a query called "myquery"

And yet still ONLY 512MB of RAM?
I gladly rejoiced when they upgraded the laptops to 512MB, but they need to upgrade ALL Power Macs to at least 768MB.

Curious fact to see that in windows, read speed peaked at 22MB/s while on mac it was 17MB/s
Mozilla is faster on windows that on linux too. On most stuff i see, windows drivers are always more optimized. Anyone has different examples?

(Sun's 1.5 for AMD64 is based on that.)
Really? That is interesting. On all benchmarks i have seen, blackdown is the slowest of all JVM's. I guess the amd port should be good if Sun used it, or otherwise they just wanted to get any version amd64 compatible. I have always stayed far away from blackdown because of this, but really haven't tested it with servlet development, which is what i currently use.
I thought you just said that 1.4 doesn't work on AMD64?
No, i said there was no amd64 port of 1.4. I am using 32 bit 1.4 for development.
I also use mac, and guess what, i want to use the same version on all my boxes
You seem to be under the impression that 1.5 is incompatible with 1.4. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
No i am not. I don't need 1.5 right now, so why upgrade?
Because:
*1.4 works fine.
*Mac version is 1.4
*No java plugin on 1.5 for amd64
*Eclipse's stable version needs 1.4
*Java 1.5 sucks, because of bad implementations of stuff like generics. See here for info.
