JavaFX Honorable Mention and new computer! 

Hello people! How much time, isn’t?

In my last post I covered my participation at the JavaFX challenge.
And, finally the JavaFX coding challenge came to end. You can view the final results here.

Yesterday I received one e-mail from the judging team informing that the jury awarded me one of the Honorable Mention prizes for the application I’ve submitted. That’s nice!!

I’m happy with the results of this challenge. I can explain why, in three steps:
- First of all: I took only three days to develop and submit my entire participation (counting with the blog post). And at same time of the contest, the same old (but true) story: my job, and had many exams and assignments at my university. Remembering the contest submissions deadline: from March 23rd to May 29th.
- Second (and the most dramatic): my computer! With a few time to waste, my last computer, which I consider nowadays as a total garbage, too slow, does not helped me. I say “last” because today my new notebook arrived!
- The first winner application does not run in my old machine! Without a video card, is to heavy for it to run. Second winner application runs, but veeery slow.
But, as I said, I’m happy!
Congratulations to all participants!
See you in the next contest!
