Good stuff Brad. I was wondering when you folks were going to make an app to handle sounds. Just a question, will it have a specific sound for resuming Windows from Hibernate/Stand By? That would be really cool if it did.
I bet it'll run XP embedded, eventually.
Just an idea for you to pitch to the program people at CurrentTV (the new one co-owned by Al Gore) or G4 -- why not have a weekly television show THERE ? Maybe you've thought of this already, Brad.
1.) The network quarantine feature is a badly-needed one. Kudos for Microsoft finally doing something in that regard. 2.) Hot-patching is a good thing as well. Many times, you can't *just* bring a server down for a restart. Some servers can take up to 30 minutes to fully boot up. 3.) Image-based setups: long overdue. Takes 39 minutes down to about 15 or 20 (under optimum conditions...). Another good idea.
Yes, it was intended as a shell replacement. And my goal is (and has always been) COMPLETE replacement, down to the window management itself. If DX can't do it (or has been purposely made NOT to, as I suspect) then it's not the framework for the job. And I keep hearing a LOT about stuff not being meant as shell replacements, but that's never stopped me yet <img src="http://images3.stardock.com/wc/smiles/Tongue.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs
@thomassen: That's EXACTLY what I ran into. I attempted to fill a bug report, but had no idea where to do that at. Maybe at the newsgroup place(s) thru Stardock Central? *shrug* @Woodbridge: yes, that DOES interest me. Next question, will changes take hold when DX3 is running as shell?
Hello everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster lol... Yes, I tried to do it with Desktop X. The first few releases of it's prototypes were my SlickWin project. Basically I was trying some new things, some worked and some didn't. Some of the things I tried were a little beyond DX's abilities, like using .png for the taskbar and systray components. I'd end up with transparent text and bad stretching/tiling of the images underneath.
