Well, they can create something to batch convert the functions of most used widgets to built-in Mac OS X widgets.
And I wasn't talking about GTK+ or QT, I was talking about pure X apps.

I like Apple's X11, it's not bloated with stupid shit like the whole resource sharing thing. Any halfway decent Macintosh is going to run just fine. The Xserver, imo, is just a relic from the old mainframe setup. X11, .NET, just more of the same. How about, instead of some insanely overpowered server, and some ghetto ass clients, we just make a decent computer? Aqua and Quartz are nice and light.

Xorg isn't light?
That's news to me.

According to the Y Windows about page, being network transparent doesn't reduce the speed of the system on local hosts.

The only pproblem with debian is its not dated enough to work on my 2001 computer. I'm installing OS/2 just to give a dated OS a shot on a dated computer.

I've never used X.org, the 200 MHz computer I ran it on would take several weeks to compile it.
