Might I suggest you investigate a SunBlade-xx00 > machine instead? I wouldn't buy a monster like E450, I got it for free, which is how I happened to have it. I don't think I need Sun Blade, actually Ultra 10 is very usable, GTK2 does not seem to work very good on it, i.e. it consumes a lot of CPU cycles and slows things down, but then GTK2 is not the most efficient and well-implemented toolkit anyway. I hope somebody someday will design something better... _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
