If the image above didn’t hint at it, I’m actually going to learn Java this time around (versus the four other times). I’m following along with Java Intro Programming (with Passion!) Boot Camp thing (run by Sang Shin) since I probably wouldn’t have the concentration to do it by myself (that is, without something to follow along and homework). I started late (at the end of the second week) but I’m caught up now, hopefully it will all go well.
On a similar note, my workstation is a bit slow (an Ultra 10 is quite a dog now) to run NetBeans, anyone know where I can get a cheap workstation?
How come you’re not running it from the iBook? And, can you use Eclipse as an alternative?
The boot camp uses NetBeans for some of it’s homework and I had NetBeans installed on my Ultra 10.
Java feels funny on Mac OS X (well, the IDEs that is), maybe it’s the small screen.
Probably..the computer labs have Netbeans 4.1 installed on the macs I think so you can try it out, but 5 might have some improvements. Java may not feel right, but they certainly build in a good level of support into OS X… at least it seems so because it’s preinstalled and get updates through system update, etc.
Hello there, I hope that you are finding the materials very useful. Please feel free to send us feedback at JEDI – I am sure that Sang will be happy, too (Sang being one of the JEDI Masters).
paging Eric Rivas. Would you pls contact me so that I can send you Duke Squishy dolls. I need your address. I want to show my appreciation for the singular kick-ass halff-ass blog in the blog-o-sphere by giving you swag.
