    Well, since this is mostly a Windows developer forum, the answer is probably most. Is it true that in China, you can find illegal copies of software that appear legal sold for practially nothing?

      I have Windows XP and Ubuntu Linux on my desktop computer, and Mac OS X Tiger on my notebook computer. For all personal work, I use either Linux or OS X. In fact, I booted into XP only to check how my website looks in Internet Explorer. Thomas

        In China, most people use Windows operating system. Only some develpers use Unix or Linux. Of course, some fans of linux use it too. So my question is that: do you use Windows or Unix/Linux? 我的英语不足以表达出来,受打击了。:(( -- modified at 21:27 Wednesday 7th March, 2007:((:((:((

                You seem... really sad about this question. Perhaps using Linux would make you happier?

                        Spitting is a dirty habit. I hope you've given *nix a try at least. No one likes a bigot.

                                    Tiger runs on new Intels also. But, not on the generic notebooks yet. It is a possibility, though. Thomas

                                      Okay, I understand. But I never would have thought of that. What if you make a mistake removing the icons (delete one character too many or something)? Isn't there any other way of conveniently running the validator that doesn't make it part of the very thing you're validating?

                                        Okay, I understand. But I never would have thought of that. What if you make a mistake removing the icons (delete one character too many or something)? Isn't there any other way of conveniently running the validator that doesn't make it part of the very thing you're validating?

                                        I was planning to do a final test manually by entering the URL on the validation website. I am sure I can probably create another page that have a link to test each page in the website. Frankly, I did not think that was a big issue. That said, your idea of exploring the possibility of setting up an automated test outside the pages is good because a website is never finished. It is a business promotion and brand-building tool that has to be changed regularly to reflect the changes in business etc. Thomas

                                          Tiger runs on new Intels also. But, not on the generic notebooks yet. It is a possibility, though. Thomas

                                          But the specs[^] still says you need a PowerPC G3, G4 or G5 to have it installed! If it can run on an intel, I would love to try it (if they have a trial I mean.. I shall buy if I like it..) and buy one to run on my intel machine. Any ideas?
