wrong, but close! :-)
in between italy and portugal there's spain: "mas o menos" stands for "more
or less". besides, I am italian myself.

so you don't consider installing linux something worthy. my point is that i
have never ever used other operating system but linux (let alone several
short periods on hp-ux), so it's kind of mandatory. the other option is
switching all tools I've been using on linux with osx similars (or re-compile
all of them unde darwin).

distributions database archive are kind of down to date for titaniums and i
haven't been able to feel how good the support is so far.
from what I have been reading these days, even if finding informations is
sort of troublesome (mostly in japanese..... way worse than portugese!), the
main problems arise from driving the ati card.
