Now that Photoshop CS2 works on Linux, there's only one app left, Flash MX, that I need in order to switch to Linux for good. I suspect that this will be coming soon, since Adobe appears to be seeing the light with regards to Linux.
For me, Linux is the only choice, since I refuse to do the designer hardware thing and go Apple. If they'd release OSX for use on a PC though, I'd switch in a second.
pretty much the same story here...
folks aren't happy that I run Linux, but they run Windows and when something goes wrong, they're the first to whine about it.
go figure...
PS CS2 on linux, natively? Link? I've obviously missed that one.
What could Apple do to improve their appearance? They don't sell gumdrop-shaped, candy-colored computers any more. Their current case designs can only be described as 'minimalist'.
The iMac is just a plain white flat box on a stand. 
The Mac mini is just a small gray box.
Their designs look good, but it's hard to see how they could be made more plain or simple.
