iPhone developer ports game to Zune HD in a mere 12 hours
,----[ Quote ]
| A few days ago, Novell unveiled its new 'MonoTouch' SDK to
| be used for developing iPhone applications in .NET...
|
| The developer, Foundation42, posted their milestone via
| Twitter, showing the power of Novell's new SDK and what can
| be achieved with it. The game that was ported is called
| WordMonger, and was displayed on a YouTube video which we
| have included below. Many have questioned Microsoft's games
| which were included with the Zune HD, as (although they're
| free) they display a short ad each time they are launched.

CodePlex Foundation will help spread use of Mono
,----[ Quote ]
| The appointment of Novell vice-president Miguel de Icaza to
| the board of Microsoft's CodePlex Foundation has been done
| for one reason - the Foundation will serve as a handy
| vehicle to increase the use of Mono.
|
| [...]
|
| Wouldn't that mean less time can be devoted to developing
| applications for Linux? After all, the same developers are
| writing the code for both ports, aren't they?
|
| Bingo, the magician arrives, Miguel with his magic Mono
| wand. No problem, says de Icaza, just switch to Mono. Then
| you can code just once and it will run on both Windows and
| Linux.

NOME in .NET? â Not on my desktop!
,----[ Quote ]
| I believe the weapon of Mono is to âget Linux users hookedâ to the .net
| environment, always offering the superior and more mature version on the
| Windows platform. Just like when you first tried alcohol you would probably
| start off on lighter products until you acquired a taste for it, progressing
| later in life to liking stronger spirits. With Windows having
| the âdefinitive versionâ and users hooked or caught in the .net, Microsoft
| could effectively remove or hold to ransom the addiction of using .net from
| non-Windows users. Just an idea, but from a PR standpoint IMO it would seem
| far more viable than MONO being used to trick people into installing
| Microsoft patent infested code.
