I'll be happier about KHTML when it can read www.iht.com. Mozilla really is about the best out there when it comes to page rendering, folks.

I've always wondered - if windows terminal services acts in that manner, how does rdesktop work? I mean, fonts show up right, everything is drawn right, and yet I sense that they haven't implemented the windows widget set from scratch.

Yeah, you can run X11 apps under OS X. But the whole problem is that the apps use a native library.
I'm in a situation where I don't have physical access to macs, but I have to develop on them. Well, since I'm not on console, most of the OS is useless to me - particularly development and debugging tools like MallocDebug. I wouldn't be in this situation if it used X11.
And just using X11 doesn't mean a lack of speed. Heck, nothing's stopping you from writing quartz extreme using GL over X11 - and even better, you could remote-display, with HW GL in that setup!
SVG is similar in scope to Macromedia's proprietary Flash technology: among other things it offers anti-aliased rendering, pattern and gradient fills, sophisticated filter-effects, clipping to arbitrary paths, text and animations.
Even writing your own parser isn't entirely a bad idea. It depends on your message size. A few months ago, in an all-night hacking session, I whipped up a SAX parser that was over 3 times faster than expat for messages under a certain amount (roughly 200 bytes, IIRC).
Often parsers will bog down because they have lots of features most people don't need - like namespaces for instance.

Err...no. From the article:

None of those can hold a candle to the mighty Ocelot. I'm sure Apple's saving that one for OS 11.
Oops, I fail. Didn't see that in the submission. (though I /did/ submit this yesterday. grr.)
There is a linux port of these drivers. I've tested them and they work with an Orinoco a/b combo card. http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/madwifi
