So you are one of the believers that other OS are immune to viruses? Keep dreaming fool! It is all about market share! Why isn't Photoshop release for anything but Windows? Do you think that Adobe would not make a Linux version if they could make money with it? Like I told you earlier, it is about marker share.
Linux has a lion's share of the server market. Presumably there is more important data held on servers than on desktop machines.
BTW, the GIMP is coming out soon at version 2.8. It will have a choice of traditional GUI or a single-window MDI mode, and it now supports wider colourspaces through GEGL. There is far too much competition in the Linux market for Adobe to be able to sell their hugely expensive paint program.

Now be honest, Photoshop is more than a paint program. That would be like saying GIMP is just a paint program, and it is much more than that. And actually, in current iterations, GIMP really does match Photoshop for features that the majority of the people want or actually use. GO GIMP!
