I would like to ask you. if i want to program an OS like Mandrake 9.0 how
meny Millions do you think i need?
I agree complitely with Jake MacMullin.
If you check WO. who really use the old WO on windows? or the poor XCode on
Mac?
And PLEASE dont forget that this WO poor stuff, doesnt run on Linux at all.
what the hell Apple think about??!!
Your hause cost Millions in the past. But it still need Billions in the
future.
according to. if you check the market today. you will find that WebObjects
is not the number one.
In spite of its one of the best on the market.
IBM stopped its own EDI and started supporting Eclipse. // good example for
Apple.
regards.
