This is great news! I'd like to congratulate QNX Software Inc. with this new release ;) .

Even though I have no interest in the embedded scene, I am the more interested in the Desktop portion of QNX. As a desktop solution, QNX Neutrino RTOS ain't that hard to setup as most poeple think. And, Photon is a GUI that is absolutely equal to many others out there.

Give it a try if you haven't, yet, it's real nice!

Whats with this 30 day stuff? Used to be no limit.

Actually, the time-out is only on the "pro" parts of the install, which never got included with the downloadable version in the past. So there is no limit on the same feature set as before, but now there is an extended feature set for the first month.

I can't just wait when NC version will be released...

Will try to port DotGNU to it.

Will have to d/l ~300M via modem ;) (

QNX has potential
by timh-rack64 on Thu 3rd Jun 2004 11:23 UTC

qnx should go after the desktop market with this product, instead of strictly developers... the market has come to them.

Awesome! I cannot wait!

Sweet!

Yeah! I've been itching for 6.3

timh - rack64,

I don't know that going into desktop market makes sense, but seeing a little more emphasis on that which also makes a good desktop sure can't hurt with developers and OS geeks : }


Chris McKillop,

Great to hear about 6.3 - and the 30-day Pro trial is way cool too!

Killerstuff

cdm, any plans to update your 'Killerapps'? I particularly like the look of the music player, but unless I'm missing something, I haven't seen any updates in over a year.
