Re: OT: VISTA
I never said vim and emacs were not real, just that they are horrible from a usability perspective.  This SciTE looks interesting... |

Re: OT: VISTA
Wasn't aware that EditPad had a Linux version. Interesting.

Re: OT: VISTA
For any software today to not support a mouse is pretty near inexcusable.

Re: OT: VISTA
Well people are posting across many game forums that their favorite games don't run well, or at all in VISTA. Many want to know why... DUH... You should have read before you bought. A lot of folks were told by salesmen at best buy, comp usa, and others that VISTA would run their older games better than they are ran in XP.. In other words they were out and out lied too. I have suggested to many that they return their PC's and demand their money back. That they file a formal complaint with their states AGO and that they not buy a new pc from a fast food type electronics retailer.

Re: OT: VISTA
M$ better be careful with DX10 being Vista only. This is the same kind of thing that got them in trouble with IE.

Re: OT: VISTA
Wasn't the trouble with IE more that they threatened to stop licensing Windows to OEMs that wanted to bundle alternative browsers (and media players, etc.)?

Re: OT: VISTA
I think the only trouble with IE was that it was designed and marketed the way it was in order to KILL netscape.
