Isn't that a bit strong?

Criminals?

The root problem is not closed source but rather software patents.

Software patents should not exist at all.

If that wasn't possible then closed souce...

Indeed...they're not stupid at all.

They are quite clever and a bit cunning.

What better way to market than for your product to become a de facto standard?

So why get upset with Adobe? ...

Sorry Picard...I came across so judgemental and harsh. I don't like to be that way.

I hope I wasn't offensive.

I just say as long as people are using the best tool for their particular project...

.

Perhaps for the OS connoisseur?

Do many people really try a new Linux distro every month?

Besides if you just want a distro put on a DVD for you there's the OSdisc.com and Linuxpusher.com and...

Extremely disappointed.

I'd not used the Ubuntu's before this one.

Well everything installed with no troubles, I put a DVD in and then have problems getting it out.

The drive bay would open...

I suppose if 0.999 ... with the three dots at the end is taken to mean that we are looking at the infinite series I mentioned above, then it is correct.

But still the sigma notation to represent...

.

When I just see this;

0.999... = 1

I would say that's wrong.

BUT..

This thread is somewhat confusing.

When I put a DVD in it puts a DVD icon on the desktop and the directory contents pop up.

However when I want to change to another DVD I press the eject button on the drive and it pops out and then...

I'd say we need to keep both going.

I know QT has the better docs and it has a few more advanced features.

But I just plain like GTK, I like the way it looks.

QT is so Windows like at the...

I've never been a great fan of KDE, but I do like all the KDE apps that came with Ubuntu.

Gnome is ok, but I like Xfce much better.

So Linus uses whatever he likes best, he's entitled to change...

Not enough included Gnome themes on the install dvd.

The unattractive default colours.

The wireless didn't work and it has an Atheros chipset.

But mostly I do like it, I think the next...

The one with the balls in the air looks like he got smacked on the head.

The other one seems to be contemplating what to do with the balls, so I voted for the second.

I think it would be great to unite the Linux desktop efforts behind one single GUI toolkit.

That said would Gnome on QT go all bloated and sluggish...slow...like KDE?

I never imagined there would be so many programs.

I was already thinking I'd have to install Windows XP again to use
some of my old programs, but of course I'd rather not.

Thanks!

What I'd like to find is the type of program where you can click on a word in the King James Version and have it show you the Strong's # reference, then I could just look it up in the Strong's...

You'll need to use GTKGLext which is not maintained,and not even an official part of GTK and hasn't been updated in a long time.
It doesn't support the GL_ARB__multisample, and besides just seems to...

In it's current state GTK is at a dead end.

A complete re-design is what is needed.

Is it really worth it at this point? I'm not sure it is.

I think it's terrific news that Qt is now LGPL.

Qt is clearly the superior toolkit.

GTK has problems. For one the terrible integration with OpenGL. Also the fact that it's based on C is very...

PNGwriter is extremely easy and simple to use, and I'm sure you could create a grapher with it, (I'm assuming this is a 2-d project).
Also Cairo is very easy to use.

Cairo is the more flexible...

Are there any good libraries for Delphi?

Basically I see no real benefit in choosing it over Python which has much more momentum behind it, and is not a proprietary language trap.

Delphi?

based on Pascal...not good.

Windows only...not good.

Proprietary language without any language standard.

I'm thinking you meant this in jest, with all due respect, I find that a rather meaningless statement, C++ is very useful if not amusing!
