Pick one, then. You can't have both.
Me, I miss Opera, back in the days when it was fast, innovative, and a damned useful tool.
Nowadays, they're all flash and poor substance, and the third-party plug-ins that people make to replace the most useful functions (Sessions! Life was so easy with sessions!) rarely work after even minor updates.

What really tickle my curiosity is, what prompt you to use this title "Santos", what does that even means?

Read the red bit at the top of the page, then post this here: Ask a question[^]
But give better information! The quality and speed of a response depoends to a large extent on the quality of you question - and we cannot see your screen, access your hard disk, or read your mind. All we get to work with is exactly what you type...

Is it a question or are you posting an article? 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

I have been trying to revive my little raphics engine and UI project ever since Mickeysoft thought that it would be a great idea to kill off XNA. They wanted to herd us over to Win8 Metro (cr)apps, but I did not feel like rewriting all that code, nor ever putting anything into their (Cr)AppStore.
My only chance to revive the whole thing is to replace XNA by MonoGame, which started out as a reincarnation of XNA. Replacing the references was the easy part. The .Net code compiles and works. There are a few warnings for using methods which have become obsolete, but still are included for compatibility.
The real issue was with compiling and including the graphics resources, including the shaders. Think of them as declarations of data structures and functions which run on the graphics processor. The shaders were written for HLSL 2.0, the MonoGame compiler expected at least ver. 4.0.
For starters I converted only my test program for the graphics engine. It worked, but the particle effects were not rendered at all. The shader for the particles was a little more complex. It does not only do the transformations and texture mapping. It also calculates the animation of the particles on the GPU. The shader compiled without errors or warnings, the test program runs fine and displays everything with exception of the particles.
To make things short: The input structure of the shader had to be declared differently in version 4.0. The input values did not get mapped to the right variables and remained 0. The shader rendered lots of totally transparent pixels at coordinates (0, 0).
Time for some bragging.
This is my test program. The whole scene is scripted with XAML, including the camera which moves through a series of waypoints. I also made the models and the textures, so be easy on me. I'm not an artist.
This is a screenshot of a transport on a landing platform.[^]
The particle effects were started by pressing F1. Up to now that means that nothing happened at all. This is what it looks like now![^]
Looks like the graphics engine is back from the dead. Now I can't wait to get the UI working again.

I liked David tennant portrayal of santa clause in miracle on 34th st. Also Patrick troughton was good as the diplodocus in Jurassic park.
But I don't watch a lot of movies so what the hell do I know?

Maybe they can lose him in a trans-dimensional warp of some kind! 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Hmm. He's Canadian, and Canadia is part of the British Commonwealth, so he might even be eligible to play the role.
Be careful what you wish for, because a lot of people might blame you for it!

Take a leaf out of the USA trend and find somebody famous for something completely unrelated to the task: Prince Harry? Or if they want to go another older doc: Boris Johnson (MP)?

I think they should have a completely CG Doctor; stay at the forefront.
Or get Sacha Baron Cohen, who appears able to play absolutely any character absolutely convincingly.
