回憶 — 買 Linux 軟件
Posted on 2007-06-04 • (0)
「Linux 軟件也買？」看到標題的人可能會這樣想。但是 VMware 會不會買？Crossover Linux 呢？買不買完全在於需要與否，還有軟件本身是否優秀得令人甘心花錢。像 VMware，就可說是件值得買的東西，即使 (Continue reading…)

Time to give KDE a try
Posted on 2007-03-01 • (4)
When last time somebody told me QT4 has support for vertical text and is using UCS4 internally, some impulse happens in my mind, though no action yet — probably it’s time to reconsider KDE again.

Right now what I can see from GNOME is just a small bunch of people keep fixing bug and adding more and more apps into core (the difference between 2.16 and 2.18 is basically a few development related applications), but no REAL INNOVATION.
