BeOS is slick and cool. Unfortunatly, I am having trouble
getting my hardware working properly. Plug and play my ass.
At
least it reboots quickly.
Using BeOS reminds me of being a Macaddict, when everything
was shareware.
Linux has spoiled me, I'm so used to everything, quality or
crap, being free. As in beer.
Koolaid! Just got BeOSinstalled on my Thinkpad.
Except that
it won't recognize my pcmcia network card, which I suppose
makes it basically worthless to me.
I want to start playing around with GUI development to take
a break from all the web design I do. But what environment
to use? Tk means I can use python/perl, but it's ugly. KDE
vs. gnome/gtk? Do I bite the bullet and get VisualC++ just
to see how the other side lives? Maybe java/swing? yerg. so
many choices. I miss my Apple II and getting to choose
between LoRes and HiRes (ok, so you could also choose HiRes
2 and get more screen resolution) modes.
