considering the following information maybe its not as bad as you think. so lets see.. mathematica runs on linux and has for a really long time, probably longer than you knew about mathematica or linux.. I will say that the front end isn't as nice as the windows version, but I really like the mac os x version better than all the others.. the linux one isn't unusuable its just a little ugly cause they use motif, I believe.. and its a little slow at rendering some of the graphics, but its still very good... a lot of people who use mathematica daily run it on linux, so that should give you some idea
photoshop.. well you probably don't need more than the gimp offers right? msft maps and streets I've never used.. but I get by with map quest. umm there are add on apps for palms you can download for free that let you write anywhere... just in case you didn't know. -Omar On Thu, Oct 10, 2002 at 08:22:22PM -0500, Jeffrey Forman wrote: > I've come to the point where I'm using linux more and more each day. > It's now the OS I run more on my dualboot desktop, and I am using > windows only for the few apps I cant run in linux (msft maps and > streets, photoshop, mathematica, etc).
