Re:CE, PocketPC, etc. (Score 1)

I quote,"...Microsoft OS. WinCE 1.xx had some serious problems, and Microsoft has learned from these problems and has made what I feel is the most stable OS in their product line." Ok, I'll bite. I have several friends that develop under WinCE and have for several years. As I recall the only thing they complain about is how M$ says WinCE can do/does do something and it simply doesn't or has not yet been completed. Yet it was sold has being able to do it. Now as for the most stable OS...I have NT 4.0, Linux (SuSE and Red Hat), 64-bit HPUX 11, Solaris. Individually the Unix and Unix-like and combined have a significantly higher level uptime compared to the NT Servers. I can also serve web content faster with a Compaq 1275 (32MB, 333 PII) running Red Hat than I can with a dedicated NT Server with (512MB, PIII 500). Put that in your marketing. Did I mention...the Compaq is a laptop =D Through the years I have found it amazingly difficult to do many things with any particular OS I was using. I am not so much concerned with one OS being better as I am with is functioning to spec. I have issue with M$ because many more things than ususal do not function as spec than other OS's. One the other hand M$ systems really help some of our clients how require ease of use products on the low end. That said...Long live Palm OS! Everything else is just gingerbread!
