I've had a 2-monitor setup (with different resolutions) in the last 6 months and it worked beautifully. I'm using GNOME, and everything worked fine. Different panels on each screen, panels that know the boundaries of the physical screens. Maximize maximizes to the current screen. Etc Etc Etc...
Interesting. My experience is that right now, Linux is even-to-better w.r.t. Windows for media playback. I hardly get 4% CPU usage when watching media fullscreen.
If you use Gnome/KDE with antialiasing turned on, VNC will be certainly faster. Try xterms and fvwm, and you will not even be able to notice that the session is remote.
upper.cpp:2391: error: `casesensitive' undeclared (first use this function)
Sorry to say this, but if you need to search for minutes to find a 13-letter identifier on a specific line in a specific file, I don't want to know what that lines length is!
Please read what I wrote, that case in identifier names has by convention semantic significance, so that you can discern just by the case of the identifiers the following cases:
org.foo.Bar.bleh is the static variable named blex of the class Bar in the org.foo package, contained in the org/foo/Bar.java file.
org.foo.bar.Bleh is the class Bleh in the org.foo.bar package, contained in the org/foo/bar/Bleh.java file.
As you see, these are quite different, and in different places. But still, if a coder uses Foobar and FooBar as class names, yes, he will be in trouble in case-insensitive filesystems. As for the source issue you mention, it is really two issues:
The encoding of the source files
The encoding of the file names
For the first I know that it uses the environments encoding IIRC on Unix by LANG or the locale. For the second, well, It seems to work just fine on a UTF-8 Linux environment with greek class names, but I don't know anything about Windows other than VFAT with long file names uses unicode.
Heat Insulators work both ways. Using this you could cool your house/office with the cheapest of the cheap airconditioners, as you would only need to remove the heat generated inside the house.
Hmmm... You have to consider the error-corrected outgoing bandwidth of the brain. This will require training for you too, and probably on a similar scale to learning to use a keyboard.
You have to understand that the movies, as shown in the theaters, are nothing more than extended trailers for the Special Edition DVDs - these have much better pacing.
Remember, the load time is mostly due to dynamic library linking. My guess (I don't use KDE) is that KDE has a lot more symbols, objects and virtual methods than Qt, thereby slowing down the application initialization, as these have to be made during load time.
In the Gnome world, gnomemm - the C++ wrappers for Gnome - have more or less the same problems.
On the third hand, prelinking has increased dramatically the load times of OpenOffice. Happy happy, joy joy!
Hell, when I was a kid I got a bad burn on my calves from the exhaust of my uncle's motorcycle. My gradmother put olive oil directly on the burns and on top of that flour. Yes, flour. I can no longer make out that burn...
Regading key input, the P800 has a touchscreen with handwriting recognition. Works really good too, unless you are like me and write really really small letters.....
I haven't read all of Egan's books, but it's not `Diaspora'. In that book, they travel as software on a computer-equivalent made of conventional matter (and occasionaly as information beamed by gamma-ray lasers). And yes, all three ajdectives apply.

Yes, but the grandparent mut have parsed, like me, a vitual 'e' after "Not". It still makes sense, in a "WTF?" kind of way....
If you think that you won't spend any time at all with an off-the-shelf solution, think again.
The cost of adopting said solutions to your business workflow will easily be a multiple of the package price.

Take a look at eclipse. Not only is it a subperb IDE that you can pick up within the hour, it has the correct-my-case-for-me feature you asked for.
Note that in Java case has by convention semantic significance, so that you can discern org.foo.Bar.bleh from org.foo.bar.Bleh.

Please explain how you/your brain understands moving your arm/fingers. The same mechanism will be used to control the computer.
In other words, as your brain has lerned to use your hands, you aree able to learn to control the computer.
Remember that it has a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. At 76", that gives you approx 32 dpi. I still want that $8000 22" LCD monitor with ~200dpi ....

*cough*
You don't seem to have RTA, because they are the *anti*-spam guys that provide RBLs....

Indeed, it sounds more lika a BManagerFH....
Quake 3 was never meant to be a game, it was a technology demo you paid for.

It actually reminded me of an 80's style transputer.
Score: +1 (Paranoid)
I dont' have the RFC befpre me, but it's already implemented like that in IPv6, IPv4 got it's own address block
Latency depends on the provider. In my case, I get consistently RTTs > 650 ms, which makes vnc very uncomfortable to use.

I first parsed that as "Mind-controlled Weather" and went WTF?
And then it passed....

Simply tell them to look at the HD blinkenlichts. If it blinks, it's doing something.
That's also a reason I have a load meter on the taskbar...
