X11 just a window manager
Actually, X11 is not the window manager. It's the display manager. TWM, FVWM, IceWM, etc are window managers. KDE and Gnome are destkop environments that also do window managing themselves.

A list of billionares in 2005 (measured by United States Dollars), or a count by nationality You can see that Americans make up the majority.
Of course, I assume that "America" refers to "The United States", if you're being tricky and meaning something like "Paraguay" then you'd be right. --- (\(\ (-.-) Give me back my damn feet! Generated by SlashdotRndSig via GreaseMonkey

Starsiege: Tribes and its sequel Tribes 2 in my opinon, are two of the best online FPS titles ever.
Tribes 1 would have recieved several GoTY awards, but it was overshadowed by Half-Life. Tribes 2's release was plagued by lots of bugs and patches, and many of the T1 vets didn't like the "new stuff".
Both games were also very easily modded, (there was amazing freedom and ease, but secure so there was almost no hacking) and I actually started learning how to program by modding and tweaking a server I ran off my home connection. It was also made for 56k connections, so bandwidth usage was low. (I ran a server for three years without my ISP caring) I played Tribes 2 for a long time, but then high school came along - last time I checked, there were only about 60 servers left, and only a few actually had people playing. --- PS - This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

Modify what you said, and then you've got what they're doing now.
Also, is it such a good idea to [blow someone's head off while they're] driving a moving vehicle. Couldn't that increase the potential for damage somewhat?
At least when they're blind they can hit the breaks (maybe even steer to the side of the road), and there's less risk of killing someone else in the car (think of the children!;)) when you miss. --- "I've noticed lately that the paranoid fear of computers becoming intelligent and taking over the world has almost entirely disappeared from the common culture.

If they're going to target Cedega for compatibility, why not just use SDL, OpenGL and OpenAL instead of going through another cycle-eating software layer that simply acts as a Direct* wrapper around them? It would enable you to use anything in those libraries without having to worry if the guys over at Transgaming are keeping up with Microsoft.
Writing for what's basically an emulator so you maintain a false "cross-platform" compatibility is not the way to go, and it is not the way it will go. The only way to be truly and effectively cross-platform is to only use cross-platform libraries.
Interesting possibility? Yes. But not very good for anyone. --- (\(\ (-.-) Give me back my damn feet! Generated by SlashdotRndSig via GreaseMonkey
South Korea is effectively the world headquarters of gaming, and the PC varieties of those games run on Windows
Think about what you said, and then think about how much incentive that is for companies to port their games to Linux. Korea may seem like a small country, but it's big enough to influence decisions like this. I'm sure Valve would port the next generation of Half-Life if it would get them 600,000 more sales.
