http://people.trustcommerce.com/~adam/top10/wrong.html Unfortunately, there are several things wrong with the article: i. I don't agree with the argument in 1, which carries the danger of falling into the the 'designed for Internet Explorer' trap; the more 'best browsers' the better. (And 'hurt the user experience' makes me reach for the blue pencil :) ii. 4 is no issue with Mandrake; the 'What to do?' menu item is excellent and a simple solution. iii. I wonder what sort of machine he's using as 5 is not visible here (1GHz PIII, 256MB RAM, built-in i815 graphics) iv. 9 is resolved by nedit, which he evidently isn't aware of. v. 10, although a crowd-puller when implemented, is becoming irrelevant with the advent of flat panel displays; this one runs at 1280x1024 (24-bit colour) and there's _no point_ running at any other resolution. However, 3 and 8 together seem to form about half of the queries to this list, although the author seems to be ignorant of the difficulties caused by forced reverse-engineering. I understand why; as another 'software architect' it's all too easy to fly away and become a cloud-dweller :) Alastair - -- Alastair Scott (London, United Kingdom) http://www.unmetered.org.uk/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9LxdlCv59vFiSU4YRAlm+AJ9NvFjtsImVgwhee7IHvZMgCEm/jgCfb73U d3gKxp5pEKbMUvt2zPuubx8= =bHjT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
