@MJ, I really don't have the desire to put the time or energy into wiring all of the pieces together for anybody. The decisions have been made, the momentum is in play, and the market will take care of things. To put it as simply as I can, if I could spend a few hundreds dollars to convert my library to another platform that serves my needs, I would

@Matthew, I clicked on William's profile when responding thinking I was viewing your profile. That's what made me think you had no plant experience and were just being cocky. Considering your experience, you should know exactly what I'm talking about.

MJ, I think we could probably beat this horse forever. But I don't think we need to because I think Bob P. has made it clear that L4 is based on a paradigm shift, that involves the rejection (not totally, but enough to cause grief) of time-tested, proven, intuitive conventions, methodologies, etc. that have made Windows apps that incorporate said conventions

@Matthew Yes, they know how to make a very pretty app. One man's art, though is another man's clutter. I personally don't ever want to see that page again.

I use an Asus, 1.66 CPU, with 2 GB RAM, Windows XP, and it works fine with only slight lags now and then. I keep about 15 apps open all the time, total memory usage being about 1 GB. I'm certain I do not hammer L4 the way some people here do, but its performance is fine for what I do.Though a slight hassle, I do discipline myself to minimize applications

[quote user="DanGiese"] [quote user="Michael Paul"]Second, if you are going to make a Mac application at least stick to the standard form of a Mac menu, namely the File menu.

[quote user="Bob Pritchett"] If it's any consolation, it doesn't look like a Windows app either. :-) Our first loyalty is to ease of use, and with Logos 4 we decided to do "what's right for Logos 4" even when it broke from the rigid platform UI guide. (Our observation of both Apple and Microsoft applications is that they do exactly the same thing when

[quote user="Michael Paul"] Okay ... I'm done. Thank you for listening for the upteenth time. And please, can anyone back me up here? [/quote] Yes, I will. And thank you for the opportunity.

[quote user="Dave Hooton"] It'll take twice as long to Index but I doubt the heat will be substantially reduced because the remaining core can still be used by other programs! You would be better off using Power Options in Control Panel settings and setting the CPU to about 70% (or set to Medium if you have a third party utility) because that allows

[quote user="Thomas Black"]Well on the bright side, I now get to test my laptop's cooling capacity.[/quote] I try to make laptop fan run slower by setting Logos4Indexer.exe to run only only one processor.

OK. Thanks for the info. BTW, what does the star icon underneath your photo mean? Several people have them.
-
OK. It's making sense now. I don't have to pay to upgrade my resources to L4. I thought I did. The reason I don't want the L4 resources is because of the indexing. I know it makes things faster, but at 95% CPU usage for hours, it's brutal on my laptop fan.
-
So is the proper procedure updating via L3, then porting these (or whatever you do) over to L4? I don't understand the concept of using a free program, and having to pay for the resources; but when you use the free program, you get the resources for free. BTW, I encountered the situation you mentioned. I typed "Update Now" to get updated L3 resources
-
Is anyone running Logos 3 resources exclusively (i.e., no L4 resources) on Logos 4? If so, how is it? Also, does the indexing thing happen when updating L3 resources?

Does anyone know what the southernmost building/church/monastery/hospital is at the top of the Mount of Offense in Jerusalem? I can see it on a satellite photo, but can't find a map listing the name.

Linux is a completely different paradigm. Open source requires a collaborative effort. L4 is not open source. Unfortunately, from my experience, the software industry, in some cases, has become a legalized scam. Ship an incomplete, untested product, to facilitate cash flow, and expect the customer to debug it for you. There's nothing the customer can
