Re: Help a Blonde with Java?
Who told you that Vampyre is a chick? He/she wrote that he/she is a blonde.
At this stage we may need to ask for full-body a photograph of Vampyre holding his/her N900 :D

Re: dictionary on n900
Quick reply...
I use QStarDict, and it reads all of my dictionaries/encyclopedias.

Re: "Install here" : why Linux doesn't do it?
Yeah.. that is true. When coming from another system there is a lerning curve. Pretty much everybody goes through this stadium. But that doesn't mean the old one you are familiar with is better.

Re: "Install here" : why Linux doesn't do it?
