Hello,
As I see people stop discussing about all this, but I have check Open Group
website and I check that price for CDE source are astronomical!
In my opinion Open Group is providing too big price for CDE.
It doesn’t cost such money.
Thank You.
Kind Regards,
Girts

CDE source prices were not intended
If you really care so much for CDE, why don't you use Xfce? Xfce is a very fine
desktop environment that can be made CDE-like with a few mouse-clicks.
Apart from that: I always thought one would have to ship CDE in order to be a

It's not just about nostalgia or I-know-it attitude. I am one of the typical
young user of Solaris and I find CDE more productive than either GNOME or KDE.
It's not just the desktop, but the associated utilities. The integrated
calendar works and is far more intuitive than most others (even

quite different for many reasons.Ten years ago,we had Motif an CDE for all

projects into the sys

Why? What additional cost (apart from CDE) is there in distibuting
CDE?

Hello all,
I am writing this to talk about Solaris and its

and I have found many things, which are, need to
change in Solaris.
Recently I was asked question about CDE, about its

The Metal LF in Java 1.5 is Great! It's extensively different from
Metal in Java 1.4 (which wasn't stellar). The Java 1.5 GTK LF is a bit
