That's it - if you don't get an answer to your question on one incorrect forum, shout on another one :roll:

Duh... because phones don't have unlimited resources and a VM environment allows them to control what does what.

I dislike you.

If you write questions such as this, you cannot expect to get a serious reply.

a topic title of "question" is both descriptive and helpful. So is writing in capitals.

I dislike you intensely

Yeah. And a name like FreeVista? Come on, it sounds like a joke you'd find on User Friendly. "A guy called Free Vista come on to a forum..." (I'm ripping off "A guy walks into a bar")

Ah MessiahAndrw, did you miss his previous, err, "job openings" for the FreeVista project? It's for people who hate vista to collaborate to write a new OS. That is Free. And just like Vista.

Go figure :p

First of all, This is a perfect example of not asking a question the Smart Way.

Cell phone manufactures typically dislike 3rd parties running native code on their hardware...

Apple plans on releasing a native SDK, but I think it'll require developers to "register" and "sign" their applications with a unique key.. (I could be wrong..)

Anyway, Please refrain from posting the same question repetitively.. :wink:

Oh, wow. FreeVista. sounds like a great project.

So......
Vista = Terrible
FreeVista = Vista and Free.
Ok.....So....you are making an OS that sucks, but this way you are making it so you don't have to pay for it. Special. A Free Sucky OS! I can see billboards now (Oh god...).

So....you could make a new thing but no..... you want to work on this. Wow.

I am so off topic that...............um......I don't care.

Wow. All caps. Great. I immediately don't care.
And what the hell kind of grammar is this? I'm not even gonna answer.

Is that your favorite saying?

sorry if I seem mad or angry, but I have extreme homework tonight.
and I don't care about the never ending argument of who has more homework.

*ahum* Death threats are also a pretty good reason for a ban.
