I always have a fake faith in Google about their commitment to Open Source, They are committed to OSS , But they also don`t care .....
What do i mean by they don`t care, There Launch of Google Earth and Picasa on Linux using wine emulator shows the Enough commitment they have given while developing the basic code of Google Earth and Picasa.
I was really thrilled to have Picasa on Linux, but it has came out to be Complete Looser, While Picasa on Windows is really fast enough to be used as a Day to Day application , Picasa on Linux Hog your memory and I don`t relish the idea of Emulating Software's and Cheating them :)
That`s Official there code is not portable , What you gonna Do , When Tuxmania Runs Over you ?
