Notepad++ is based on SciTE (http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html) code, which is a fully functional editor in its own right, complete with folds and plugin support. Anyway, SciTE has both Windows and Linux packages, the latter requiring GTK+.
Oh, very amusing. Sexist wanker. And to all of you who modded this shit up.
You know, there are ONE or TWO women who actually read/. God knows why, sometimes.
Speak for yourself. We've been running Exchange 2003 for two years now, and the only downtime we've had for non-patching needs was when we had a hard disk failure on one of the boxes. 9 Exchange servers distributed over Australia.
I get maybe 1-2 Exchange-related calls a week from 3500 users, most of which are stupid things like "I'm in cache mode and delayed send doesn't work!". I wish it *did* bloody work, but there's MS for you (apparently the *majority* of people don't use the functionality, thus no need for them to make it work in cache mode).
Someone please make my day and shoot a pretentious git who doesn't know what he's talking about.
I've had to work with Macs (OS 7 - MacTCP, anyone?) and early linux. And they sucked just as mightily. If you want to try and sound like you have an intelligent opinion, you could at least try a recent product. So what if you tried something over 5 years ago - that's like 50 years in IT terms.
Windows Mobile 5 is pretty decent, actually. Although, of course, there is room for improvement. If you have some observations about the latest version of the software, well, I might summon up some interest then.
This has only been on its way since Exchange 2003 SP2 was released (October last year). OK, we're still waiting on the update to Windows Mobile 2005 to enable the "push" functionality, but why are we having this discussion now?
Getting to the point, the mid-sized government body I work for has rejected a proposed Blackberry installation, since there is very little point paying for extra server infrastructure and mobile email to be routed via Canada, when you can do the whole thing in house, with no extra expenditure in hardware (or software, for that matter).
I certainly think that if a business is already running Exchange, and they haven't got a pre-existing Blackberry system, there is absolutely no reason to invest in one. So if RIM want to grow, they will need to think of something "value-added" - or cross their fingers that the Exchange solution will be so flaky that no-one will implement it. Hopefully not the latter, since that's my mid-year project!

I love people who say $article on Wikipedia is crap. How hard is it to fix it, then, if you know so much more about the topic?
