Actually I think you can. I dont know, though. Guess I've never really thought about it.

Are there any good C graphic librarys APIs that are well documented. My current project is a neat graphical rogulike game, and it would be awsome to be able to port it to all the sytems.

There are several ways to go. There's Qt Designer that's incorporated into KDevelop, there's Glade, for doing GNOME programming, and then there's my favorite: FOX Started out with Qt Designer, but never went back after giving FOX a go.
Definitely download GNU Autoconf, Automake, and Libtool. This is a most essential reference for doing any sort of serious Linux development, as this will allow you to write apps that'll run on more than one distro. You should also get this as well: GCC-HOWTO. It helps to know how to use the compiler ;)

Its good to see you back.
After reading your article, it makes me wonder what the Anti-Apple people are smoking, and your TestBox is twice as good as my *main* PC.
But what makes PC's cheap is brand diversity, most bios's are shitty... But Im more impressed that you Like Red-Hat 8.0 (Every body does).
Well you where away I switched away from Windows Completly. But I will never get a Mac unless i know im not paying for a properitry OS (I have been reading much of stallmans stuff).
So Greogry Suvuallian was right, Unix sucks!
We should all be using Linux!
I also understand Linux making you want to program... Its what made the person who Wrote Haloween II (You know; the leeked document). resign from Microsoft and make an Open Source organization.
Anyway, one thing about your article, other then the fact its about to be submited on Slashdot is that on the bottom Line WINDOWS SUCKS ASS!

play around with NetBSD for a while. it is really fun to mess with as long as you have patience and the purpose for messing with it is to learn.

NetBSD shits me, im to used to Linux/Bash, it wont let me use the UP ARROW to redo commands and stuff. Linux is better anyway... If psyjax thought Windows 98 SE had a bad installer he should see NetBSD.
(Actually i like it but its just nowhere near as good as Red-Hat 8.0, and who said it has better proformance, if it has... PROVE IT!)
Im pissed of with BSD people in a sence that they think, crap os = proformance, Linux is better. Linux is free (as in freedom you knobs who think otherwise).
So eat my nans muff BSD users.

Although 'CPU' is sometimes used to refer to the whole box.

Yes like in a Perkin Elmer 7/32 Mainframe, there are big racks with "CPU1" written on it, and "CPU2"
They have lots of core memory (Retro).
Sadly i cant find a Unix or a C Compiler for it, I do have a book of Machine Code Instructions for it, it currently sits in my dads shed. (The size of his "shed" is the equiv to a Unix Junkies uptime). And its a fucking huge shed compared to your Suburban Lawnmowerhouse.
But yes, I have some seriosly "Retro" computer systems at home.
