-<H3>Why would I want to use wxWindows 2 in preference to wxWindows 1.xx?</H3>
-
-Some reasons:
-
-<ul>
-<li>In 2 there is far more flexibility, for example in the way windows can be
-nested, and the way events are intercepted.
-<li>There is more functionality for producing sophisticated applications,
-for example using the wxTreeCtrl and wxListCtrl classes.
-<li>There is better C++-conformance (such as usage of wxString and const) which
-will make your applications more reliable and easier to maintain.
-<li>wxWindows 2 will be better supported than 1.xx.
-<li>The GTK version is attractive for people interested in writing Linux and GNOME
-applications.
-<li>The Mac version will be one of the best frameworks available on that platform.
