I don’t know of a Linux that runs video/audio processing software of the caliber available for Windows and Mac.
I’d love to see something like Camtasia and CuBase avaialble for Linux.
The problem is providing a port of these apps to work on the myriad Linux distributions, almost all of which are using different kernel versions, different versions of X, different window managers, etc.
