It really depends on the applications you need. There are studios out there that run everything on Linux. Maya works fine on Linux, but Adobe products do not run at all.

- CamperBob2 14y agoMaya works fine on Linux, but Adobe products do not run at all. Gotta wonder if that's about to change. Adobe needs more friends these days. If there's even the slightest indication that Windows 8 is going to prompt any sort of migration to "Linux on the desktop," then smart ISVs will have people working 24/7 on the ports. If Maya can run on Linux, so can CS6.
- thenomad 14y agoSample size of one here, but if I could reasonably easily get the Adobe Production Suite, 3DSMax, and a couple of other pieces of unique 3D software to run on Linux, I'd probably move as and when Windows 8 became otherwise inevitable.
