You, of all people, should know that "Aqua" discussion goes in the appropriate forum. And yes, this does count as "Aqua".

Now the name is a little different, but nonetheless, not very innovative.

WinExpose is still out there... and now there's this addition. :blink: People do indeed mimic quickly, don't they? :canadian:

#101386

this thing sucks :6

#101389

winexpose sucked too :6

i used it once and never again@!

it was so slow on P4 2.66, 512 PC3200, Radeon 9000 64DDR!

good thing my friend bought it before me :D

#101392

Ahahaha, their organizing algo is simple line by line ! Even me I'm trying to do a better organizing algo lol

At least WinExpose has a pretty good organizing algo lol, but this...

and it's sold $10 ! I can't believe it :)

EDIT: OH ! and it's done in C#... OMG... the first one here who buy this gonna have my foot in his sorry ass.

And what is wrong with coding in C#, Siwu?

#101549

:lol:

i was just waiting for Stevie to begin his C# crusade :D

contra for Linux/Open Source, Stevie for C# and the rest of us Apple zealots :D

don`t you just love democracy :D

#101555

Hey, I'm a linux zealot too! In fact I hold in my heart love for windows, macosx, linux, commodore, atari and even spectrum zx computers :wub: Come to me babies, children of technical evolution ^_^

Maybe siwu was thinking about memory leaks in C# apps? IMO it's depends on the developer...

Memory leaks in C# apps?

There's no such thing - the whole point of a managed application is that the runtime environment (in the case of .Net, the Common Language Runtime) manages all the memory that an application uses, and ensures that no memory leakage occurs.

I know what you mean by this, though, and that's not memory leakage - that's uncollected "garbage" - people who use a managed language often assume that, because it's managed, they can just make object after object after object and the runtime environment will make their program use no more than a nibble (and yes, I mean nibble in the old-school 1/2byte sense ;)) of memory. It just doesn't work that way. There are lots of very very well written managed apps out there, which could never be as efficiently written in an unmanaged environment, but people, as always, listen to the overly vocal minority of bad hype rather than the (usually) quiet good hype.

As for me being a C# zealot, I'm not just a C# zealot - I just come across that way because everyone seems to be in the habit of bashing .Net without taking the time to really learn about it. I'm also a C/Pascal/BASIC/assembler/DX9/XHTML/CSS2/music/hardware/net/film/book/life zealot :P

but that right there was the .NET zealot version of stevie ;):rolleyes::lol:

At least I'm true to my cause, and don't switch sides -_-

#101583

This app sucks, it seems it minimizes the windows before it shows the so called expose' type window, what crap...

#101620

Topic Moved (Again).

Ok, so "Aqua Related Apps" is a better home.

Good call, Timmie :shy:

Well, simply I don't like the idea to have a framework. It reminds me too much the VB runtimes (in MUCH bigger of course) and I don't like to oblige people to dl a 25mb framework just in order to run an application that does 50kb in size.

I looked at the language itself and I admit in looks pretty attractive, but not being able to do a standalone app doesn't make want to prog with it.

EDIT: btw I don't even use MFC, I all start from the WinMain() :), that's maybe why I don't like frameworks :)

Well, pretty soon all major OSs will ship with a C# RE. Longhorn will ship with .NET, and most linux distros will ship with MONO. And there's nothing stopping Apple from using Mono either, they ship with python and perl.

So yes, its not "stand alone", but there's nothing wrong with saving yourself some work, and its only a one time download.

#101897

Definitely the worst of the 3 clones, by far

That's fair enough, but did you know that you can actually compile C# apps in the same way that you can C++?

The problem is that the compilers are rare, and they just can't compete with the .Net Framework (or MONO) in terms of speed, resource management, or, in fact, much at all.

#102096

total crap

#102152

I just went to their site and noticed that they changed product name to WinPlosion and domain to www.winplosion.com
