   This has actually been one of the biggest deal breakers for many people    
   for as long as I can remember in the world of Linux. Many have even    
   chose to dual boot /just/ so they can have Photoshop.   
      
   I wonder why, after all these years they haven't just made and support a    
   Linux version of it. Unless they have some exclusivity with Microsoft or    
   something or there's differences in how they make people pay for it.
