Explain why they can't release a Linux version when OSX and Windows get it? Sure they explain the "challenges" in developing for Linux in their postings, but you can't tell me there aren't challenges for OSX or Windows either. They just aren't dedicating the resources to make it happen, for whatever reason!
"With the new direction Adobe is heading I'd expect much more regular Linux releases."
Care to back that up with some sort of proof? So far they've haven't proven good on their previous statements/release time frames. It's starting to become vaporware like Vista. So again I'd like to see some sort of evidence of the "New Direction" they are heading. Otherwise you're spreading FUD.
