in Sweden Nordbankens ATM's run OS/2. I saw one rebooting and rebooting one day in Stockholm. Must have been something wrong with in. But Im sure it runs much better the Föreningssparbanken's ATM, they use WindowsNT and its dog slow.. you get lag when you enter the PIN-numbers. Sometimes they crash and you cant use them. Pretty strange to see a "out of virtual memory" on an ATM machine.

Im a web developer I dont know C/C++ good enough
to make a web-app with it. But with asp/php I can make several in a very short time frame. But the relative ease of programming will bite you in the ass if you dont have a good head and can structure your code in a good way. ASP/Vbscript is a big reason for this. Many people without any programming skills will try to make a web-application and the result will often be very bad! "One World, One Web, One Program" - Microsoft Promotional Ad

I have been using helix gnome a little and I like it. But I was wondering if anyone know if they are taking a shot at making after-install configuration of linux any easier?
like re-configurating X or changing your timezone? I know you can run Xconfigurator or whatever but it would be really nice to be able to change it all from withing Helix Gnome.
Also.. What is happening with linuxconf?? The last time I used it had great potential but was a UI nightmare. Are anyone working on
improving it.. or are anyone making something better??
I really, really like the way these screenshots look but according to the article DnD didn't work so they seem to be a bit behind in some areas
I for one would love to have sucha enviroment on my linux workstation, it really *looks* polished..

Open Inventor is an object-oriented 3D toolkit offering a comprehensive solution to interactive graphics programming problems. It presents a programming model based on a 3D scene database that dramatically simplifies graphics programming. It includes a rich set of objects such as cubes, polygons, text, materials, cameras, lights, trackballs, handle boxes, 3D viewers, and editors that speed up your programming time and extend your 3D programming capabilities.
Open Inventor:
is built on top of OpenGL
defines a standard file format for 3D data
interchange
introduces a simple event model for 3D
nteraction
provides animation objects called Engines
provides high performance object picking
is window system and platform independent
is a cross-platform 3D graphics development system
supports PostScript printing
encourages programmers to create new customized objects
is fun to use

You dont seem to understand the differnce between games and professional work. Tell me ONE single professional 3D program that run on Linux, (except Houdini). The O2 came out in 1996/1997 and you are comparing a 200Mhz O2 made for _modelling_ with a brand new 500Mhz ( or what you got ) P3 with a brand new graphics-card,made for games That's like comparing apples and oranges!
And the fact that DD rendered Titanic on Linux doesn't say shit cause rendering is all about CPU-number-crunching and you only need an os that doesn't crash every second and doesnt cost and arm and a leg, so they could have used *BSD instead of Linux
What kinda of crack are you smoking to be calling Sweden a corrupt third country? At least here we dont go around killing eachother in school with AK47:s...
I think the FlexLM ( a common License Manager ) checks the MAC-adress of your ethernet-card to check the license. MIPS CPU's also got serial numbers that you can tie into the License manager.
It seams strange that a new multimedia system will only have 32MB RAM as standard. It should atleast have 64Mb if not 128Mb. Am I the only one thats thinks this is a little strange ?( For gods sake it got a 32Mb gfx-card !!)

They are using a Permedia2 based card which is a nice OpenGL-card for non-games software, atleast in NT. I hope that 3dlabs get there act together and will start making sure their hardware will be hardware-accelerated in XFree86. Wouldn't mind getting a Oxygen-card for use with Maya ( I just hope AW will port it someday).
