This... triggers my inner-troll.

Pointing to other camps as idiots is easy. Let's rise above that folks.

Okay, I agree. I remember their sad coverage of a get together in Japan. Showed the same 8 folks in 5 pics. And it was deemed a "success"...

There's no way; they reside on the lower layers but act a bit like hive-minded brutes.

Funny that happened in Finland :D. Maybe Elop asked all Nokia employees to buy a Lumia or get kicked :D

Description of "QThread" for Meego - http://developer.meego.com/api/1.2/qt4/qthread.html

I think that Nokia is holding back phones with better hardware running meego because that would compete with WP phones. Flop and Ollila is giving away customers to iOS and Android.

If they wanted they could do a 720p, 1.5 GHz dual core with meego and selling it for same price as iPhone

Sigh

is it on multi-core hardware right now? is it on a dual core 1.5ghz processor? right now?

without the above, it's speculation. period. people judiciously overlook that one statement I'm making right now. And before anybody has a stereotypical reaction - it means that it's not something that exist, in a purchase-able condition right now. that is all.

thank you for the link, btw. that does do more to educate me in the area(s) of Qt.

just the facts ma'am

It doesn't work like that when operating system supports threading done by the cpu. You could put an eight core cpu and it will work. Its just cpu instructions and the operating system don't care how it is handled by the cpu.

Totally different when operating system don't support native threading.

Is it optimized?

Is it on the store shelves right now?

Yes/no answers only please.

Yes to the first one. This isn't a yes or no answer but I think the point is that it's very much possible if it were allowed to be since Meego like Android is POSIX compliant and already supports pthreads.
