For cross-platform programs, Java rules.
Ha aha Ha!!!!

Really?

Oh my god. mary, mohamad and Xenu should re-educate you...

Since when is Java a cross-platform language?




Quote:
Java isn't platform independent; it is a platform. Like Windows, it is a proprietary commercial platform. That is, you can write programs for Windows/Intel or Java/JVM, and in each case you are writing code for a platform owned by a single corporation and tweaked for the commercial benefit of that corporation. It has been pointed out that you can write programs in any language for the JVM and associated operating systems facilities. However, the JVM, etc., are heavily biased in favor of Java. It is nowhere near being a general reasonably language-neutral VM/OS.
Quoted from the most important person in the computer programming world: Bjarne Stroustrup .

Oh well, any ways, i am a retarded baptist and i would like to know if the linux kernel, it self, is consider be an operating system?

and, uhm, say if i was to download the linux source then modify it and screw around with it, would you still consider linux better then windows?

Anyways, please note that i am not anti-o/s but i just want to make sure i have my facts right...
