Cracked while installing Linux :)

Basically, the Mono framework is ready at varying levels for different things, but the development tools for it still seem behind - unless you're using VS of course - but that doesn't run on Linux. :(

That is great news at varying levels :P .
Seriously though, I do use VS and NetBeans as my IDE's the few times I attempt to actually develop something. Maybe one of these days I will be successful. Part of my reason for Java (hence NetBeans) is for the cross compatibility. Even if it is not perfect, it is the best alternative currently available that I have seen that is "offline". I know web programming is where true cross platform occurs currently, but I want something I can use on my linux box and my windows box when they are stand-alone. Once Mono achieves it's purpose, it will be a valid alternative - and from what you are saying it may be there now depending on what I am doing... :Thmbsup:

That's why I bought the new box & opted for Suse. It looks like Mono is maturing very well and when things become practical, then I'm on board. :)
