 <title>Fed up with Adobe and their idiotic install!</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/fed-up-with-adobe-and-their-idiotic-install.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[It used to be that you could install anything on any machine. But those days hve ended. Now you have software manufacturers telling you to buying new hardware after you just spent hundreds of dollars with them. Are they getting kickbacks or what?
First just let me say that I liked Allaire. They were one of the most developer friendly software manufacturers of the time. When they were bought out by Macromedia I cheered. Why because Macromedia was the company. My fanboydom was rewarded as Macromedia proved to be even better to developers than Allaire. Adobe? Hate them! Hated them then and hated them more after they bought Macromedia. They suck! Why? because in all the years that we were complaining about Photoshop they never lifted one finger to do anything about those complaints. They just ignored the crowds of designer and web developers because they had the number one product. This made them web enemy number one as even the Microsoft behemoth listened to the masses then and now.
Why all the whining you ask? Well because now Adobe is telling that spending $1500 with them gives me the right to spend another $1000 to update or buy a new computer.

 <description><![CDATA[My trustworthy  tyan thunder based development server has been with me a long time. I have always run Windows on it with a WAMP stack but over the weekend I decided to go with one of the Linux distros and try to get MONO to work. Sadly I was thrown back into 1997 for my efforts.

 <title>Soop Content Management Portal - Is it vaporware?</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/soop-content-management-portal-is-it-vaporware.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[Even in this day and age their are people that promote vaporware. They seem to think that they are smarter and more crafty than other developers and seek to take advantage of newbies to the world of programming.
Such a project is the Soop Portal ASP project. It is quite litterally nothing but a scam. So if you are looking for a content management system written in Classic ASP don't waste your time with this bunch of con artists.

 <description><![CDATA[Adobe's Flex 3 technology is popular now because it's new. But that popularity will fade soon as developers start realizing that they want a free IDE to go with their open source technology. Jedit support is just does not go far enough to make Flex a worthwhile endeavour. Adobe is not towing the mark in comparsion to it's competition.
