ya ya you r carrect on this point java is always getting probs..

But I only mentioned my experience,, I didn't check it well, there are 99% chance to be I'm wrong,,,, But Its only my exp,,, I didn't try to prove that "NO WAY,, MY DECISION IS THE BEST"" no i didn't,, If my post meaning it,, SORRY GuYS mmmm
..

no u tell ur experience i tell mine then u decide whats better free hama ekama hoda na always go for C/C++ and i'd even recon .NET and VB6 made apps on top of java man it lags :P one nam website wala athi benchmarks gihin balana C/C++ compilers natively support almost all the OS API operations(they make the programs run faster, functions that deal with memory can be dealt with directly thru kernel by using these) but a java developer cant access these because java apps run on their virtual machine which deals with everythin that the developer has written directly and then passes to kernel thats where things become slow

its ture,,, But please don't attach FOSS THINGS with a ONE SOFT lyk java...
in FOSS we also use the C++, and others even .net,, Its not the point,,

ya the JAVA SUX,, But It can't be attached with the FOSS, Its FREE and OPEN,,

java is making huge noise, on the field.. Isn't that so... But understand this, I'm not telling about the GOOD things of java...

and also as i know.. The java is not so community developed and not a Free ( i mean not the price) software.. Its source codes was released about 1year ago, So you can't blame to all the FOSS, with only this,,,,

and also, in linux we use C and C++ also... Not based on the JAVA, Java is not a main language (check out ubuntu or any linux distro)

is that ture there are another compiler too????

I am using Vista, but it doesn't have anything to do with Open Office being slow! It was slower in Ubuntu LOL.

wht the wrong,, its a challenge/....heheh

AS a programmer we should have challenges....
To improve and help
I'd say Challenge would be to WINE programmers, not WINE users :P
Besides, as a programmer, the real challenge would be to create your own software. :D

Of course the Core components of the OS can't be high level, like Java. High Level languages are too slow.

    elaignment hadanna ba nemei, apita one vidiyata custamized widiyata karanna amarui neda??? I had the Darkest exp with envilop printing, in office its pre fixed one,, its some times not suitable for Sri lankan system, (two adresses)

    in open office I didn't had this bro, It could be adjest as you wish,

    No dubt office is improved that the open one, couz its a commercial software, Not community developed and Its highly targetting the BEST SELLING Perfomencese..

    thats the reason, and thats the disadvantage of the FOSS also...

    PS:: Don't yell about people buying Micro software, just becouz they are real good, Is that so wht about other linux distros, there are lot of linux distros better than windows, But Y people buying win,,,heheh thats the success of the micos adverticing via public and underground, you know wht i mean, if not plaese open your eyes and google ,, you will see,,,

    this situation is called Microsoft Addict,,,98% of ours have it,,even i had the same at about 3 years ago...
