That's the problem I have. I used to primarily use Ubuntu, but as an aerospace engineering student I often need use Solidworks or other CAD applications. Linux/Mac? Out of luck. Maybe that'll change one day (Dassault have released their free 2D CAD application DraftSight on linux, and they develop Solidworks), but we're probably at least 5 years off a decent linux/mac CAD application for designers.
