Hi Stefan,
I´d prefer a port of shake back to Windows. Even thought
w2k/xp don´t quite allow for more than 1,5/3/ GB of Ram
really, Vista *may* bring things back on par with MacOS
and Linux.
If I where Steve Jobs, I´d make sure *everyone* can use
Shake, FinalCut, I-Movie, use the Apple Intermediate codec
for HDV and basically seamlessly integrate any Mac thing in a
heterogenious network by allowing to make it homogenious
through BootCamp...for me only that´d be an *univeral binary*.
I´d love to run FinalCut and Shake but it´s creepy to see them
stick to they OS so rigidly even fining users of concurring OSes.
*That´s like 1984*...
I can understand you´ve picked Linux as your tool of choice
and don´t want to object against that, tho. Adobe really should
look into supporting Linux. Starting now and releasing production
ready when people like me, or ones coming from Mac could
install (and maintain!) their Linux box as as easy as if it where XP.
Personally, I´d have allready migrated but I simply can´t put in
the time to learn Linux, make sure I understand what´s going on,
constantly keep everything running, all packages installed, drivers
configured and kernels patched. I hate to say it but that´s too much
work for me. I can hardly keep up maintaining my 2-3 windoze boxes...
Cheers
tim
P.S: I want loads of Ram, HDTV 4:4:4 editing, a breakoutbox with
a 1920x1200 flatscreen, the best apps fot the task and don´t waste
my time by running into limitations stubborn competitors build in to
gain marketleadership or protect marketshare. Turns me off...

Is Shake still available on Linux?
Yes, Shake 4.1 for Linux is available through shake-sales(at)apple.com.
Pricing has not changed for Linux.

typical...
while being on the subject (of linux) I think that everyone here on
this list should send an email to adobe and tell them that we need a
paint option that isn't Gimp on linux (and don't even bother to tell
me about crossover and wine).
Or..............
Perhaps softimage could come up with a paint package for Linux?? :) I
do know you can do it... so just do it!! (and please let it be a
standalone package)
