This makes an excellent point when generalized. In business environments it is common to mix multiple platforms. It isn't rare for the enterprise to make use of both Windows and Linux systems. It...

Firstly, I don't see why porting KDE to Windows would help Windows at the expense of Linux. Solaris is already far superior to Linux in technical terms, but Linux hasn't died off to make way for it...

If anyone thought KDE was ever about Linux you were fooling yourself. It is a free desktop, not a Linux desktop. It has always been supported on non-Linux operating systems. FreeBSD and Solaris...

KDE wins for the same reason it has dominated home Linux desktops: its obviously more complete desktop experience that covers far more functionality, superior integration, and more capable business...

You seem to have drastically missed the point. It could even cost $20, it doesn't change the fact that manipulating files as if they are real objects is not efficient. The entire reason computers...

This idea is doomed to failure for the simple reason that it is a moronic step backwards. Computers improved productivity by letting us do things in ways we couldn't using real world objects. Now...

That's the problem with not having something like Smoke. KDE bindings dynamically invoke kdelibs functions, so upgrading Smoke will upgrade most bindings automatically, whereas GTK bindings need...

No, but it has a non-inline spell checker (spell checking selection is much more useful for LaTeX). On the other hand, Gedit doesn't support most of the LaTeX IDE features in Kile.

KDE's Kile is the king of LaTeX editing.

I don't think many GNOME distributions use KOffice :P
KOffice does include a far larger array of functionality than any other office suite overall, and is advancing the fastest, but the big three of...

Smoke is all that binds against C++. The Smoke consumer does not have to know about that. As far as he is concerned, he is dealing with nothing but cross-referenced metadata. The developer who...

You really need to stop embarrassing yourself, ComplexNumber. I don't see a reason a mod can't troll, but the higher standards mods are held to means you should at least be able to do it well.

If you want to learn web development, Java should be your first priority, then .NET. Java dominates the web development world, and most of what is left is .NET.

Wow, nice way to prove you don't know what you are talking about. KDE bindings are written against C, not C++. Try again.

Not only that, but KDE has far superior bindings to anything available for GTK. Almost all GTK bindings have serious flaws, e.g. the Python bindings, which don't manage memory correctly, or Gtkmm,...

According to CCID Consulting, in 2006, Linux accounted for 2.6% of the Chinese install base, but with a much, much higher number in servers (IIRC, a survey from several years ago put Red Flag at 1 in...

Quanta is the only free software web development tool that will compare to Dreamweaver. It supports FTP automatically and transparently, as all KDE apps automatically do, has highly customizable...

Is this a troll or are you just drunk?


Who says they always do? Microsoft is a single company, not "companies." One example does not make a trend. Take a look at Sun. It produces one hell of...

It's integrated into KDE right now, as a part of the kdeutils package. In KDE 4 it is being replaced with Plasma, which unifies the functionality of Kicker, KDesktop, KMenu, and SuperKaramba.

No, there are actually far far fewer. Most GNOME themes are not actually separate themes, they are just different color schemes on the same theme engine. KDE lets you manipulate color separately. ...

You gave reasons for choosing it over VMware, but not QEMU. Given that QEMU provides a more mature virtualization package, is supported in the default kernel release with KVM, with a richer feature...

Try using it in a production environment and see if it is still fast enough. Home users don't need fast virtualization. On the other hand, virtualization is very important to businesses (which are...

The only version that was freed was crippleware. Even the proprietary version can't match VMware's features, with what features it has removed it is very unimpressive. It's practically trial...

VMware is far superior to the others from a technical perspective. It has the best feature support and performance. QEMU has the advantage of being free software. Traditionally the kernel module...

Finally someone who can cite the real reason this review falls flat on its face. Not because of some absurd idea that he is obligated to review every single OS on the planet if he reviews one, and...
