You know its not only Adobe apps… it’s Autodesk, MS Office (because advanced features aren’t available on the web version), Circuit Design Suite (Multisim and Ultiboard) and every other field specific application that isn’t available under Linux or that has alternatives that while viable for an amateur user won’t just cut it if you spend 8h/day within those applications and you’re expected to collaborate with others who also do it.

I’m not saying they don’t, I’m just saying there’s a LOT of people who would love to move to Linux full time but they can’t do to the lack of field-specific software and/or poor results when it comes to Wine or generic virtualization.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
