Believe it or not Photoshop CS2 is now fully supported on Ubuntu Linux using Wine. For a long period of time I was eager in switching to Ubuntu but the incompatibility of my most used Windows based applications always made me switch back to Linux. No more Windows based Photoshop skills, now you can powerup Photoshop on Ubuntu.
If you plan on installing Photoshop you should update your Ubuntu 7.10 operating system to the latest version of Wine (version 0.9.54 - released on January 25, 2008) and then follow the very nice tutorial supplied by Softpedia. This is a real step forward in the mainstreaming of Linux based systems and open source in general. Imagine a world where your main OS is Linux based, open source and backed by a huge community worldwide. As stated by the Softpedia labs, there are no hacks required, the install goes on without a glitch and it just works. No hacks, no need to copy installation files from a Windows PC or any other "magic" tricks you probably saw on the Internet. Download Wine
