For Ubuntu, With Love.

" Please work with Adobe and do something. " -- as if Adobe would be willing to port it for free or spend so many hours that.

Btw wine runs Photoshop 7 perfectly, might run new apps too in future.

"Ubuntu can never be a worldwide OS with major applications not running. " Well, world-wide users wont have a majority as power users or developers. It runs a browser - that really enough for the 50% or more of "world-wide" users I think.

Looking at mention of OS X :P

People who can't buy a Mac run Linux. People who can't install Linux run Windows. People who know what they're doing - ride anything the way they want.

Ubuntu == The linux you can run on grandpa's desktop ?! :)

but, still as end-user and web-developer and designer, i would love to be able run CS natively on ubuntu. and, i bet there are a lot more. well, if the market for ubuntu expands, wouldn't adobe want to develop products for linux too? and, why will it port it for free. ubuntu it free, doesn't mean all applications on it have to be.

+1 on "people who can't buy a Mac run Linux. People who can't install Linux run Windows. People who know what they're doing - ride anything the way they want.".

A blog post on what Ubuntu needs from an average end-user's point of view.
