QNX on iPAQ
« on: 18 August 2002, 22:19 »
i was visiting qnxzone(http://www.qnxzone.com) and noticed they have QNX running on an iPAQ, maybe it's just me.. but this seems like a "Good Thing"

that would be awesome if some PDA companies picked up on this. some screenshots are here: http://www.qnxzone.com/eQip/screenshots/

It'd be groovy to have QNX running on an iPAQ. I think the iPAQ is the only decent device Compaq's ever built. Sure beats the hell out of Windows Ultra-Crippled Edition.

Well, I have this wonderful CD sitting beside me...

It's called Microshaft Winblows 98 (or 99, or 00, or 01, or 02...)

I'm not kidding.  It was released by Palladium a while ago.  I must say it was worth ten bucks

Don't think I hate Windows, I'm using Windows XP to post this re-

STOP 0x1A DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE   :eek:
Specifications are for the weak and timid!
You question the worthiness of my code? I should kill you where you stand!
Indentation?! - I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!
What is this talk of 'release'? Klingons do not make software 'releases'. Our software 'escapes' leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.
Klingon function calls do not have 'parameters' - they have 'arguments' - and they ALWAYS WIN THEM.
Debugging? Klingons do not debug. Our software does not coddle the weak.
A TRUE Klingon Warrior does not comment on his code!
Klingon software does NOT have BUGS. It has FEATURES, and those features are too sophisticated for a Romulan pig like you to understand.
You cannot truly appreciate Dilbert unless you've read it in the original Klingon.
Our users will know fear and cower before our software! Ship it! Ship it and let them flee like the dogs they are!

It'd be cool to see a PDA running off of an Alpha chip. :)
