I was woundering if Photoshop was available for Linux? I build my own computers, and save a pretty penny at that, but that also means that for 2 obvious reasons I can't go MAC, they cost more, and you can't make youre own mac.

So as a long time windows hater, no M$ hater, but Windows hater, I have always been interested in Linux. I know that the new MAC OSX platfrom is Unix based, so does Adobe make PS for LinuX?

Adobe doesn't offer a linux version of Photoshop, but check out this article: http://www.desktoplinux.com/articles/AT7770280571.html

Also, try GIMP. It's free and made for linux. It's a very extensive program too.

Get a Windows Emulator and then worry about the Industry standard app. Try and love all the programs you want, but if you wan't a posistion in the 'Industry' then you are going to need to own a Windoze or an XP system.

Otherwise, as suggested the GIMP is the program of choice for all Linoooooox type persons
