"Desktop Linux is almost soup. We only have a few items left on the short list. Will we do it? If history is an indicator, the answer is yes." Read this article at LXer. Read more for a short list of my personal needs before I could say "yes, I can switch to Linux or FreeBSD full time".

>Have you ever heard about Cinelerra or MainActor?
Yes, I have. Cinelerra looks like a$$ (I don't want to use it, it's a crime against aesthetics), and MainActor's Linux version is buggy (it crashes on load here because of my X fonts, I have filed a bug report months ago).
>Wake up then, 2.2 is knock-knock-knocking at your front door.
Sorry, but it's more of the same. They simply added more previews for the plugins. I was more talking about how you actually use the app. For example, writing some text on a new gimp document it's overkill. And I have to use layers, even if I don't really need to. It's things like that where PSP shines over usability. It's just simpler.
Please, don't take me for an idiot, I FOLLOW the Unix software scene more closely than you think.
