93 bugs until 1.0!

Does anybody else think it would be funny if Adobe released a native Linux port of CS3 the day that Wine 1.0 comes out?

Thanks Wine & Google.
and ***** you Adobe.

"One of the advantages Ubuntu /Linux has over OS X is that it’s possible to run Windows applications. "

Umm what? There are many ways to run Windows apps in OS X (and that's not including Bootcamp and VMware/Parallel's), Crossover is an example... I'm sure the write knows there is an OS X version of Wine being worked on too.

http://jonramvi.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/ps3.jp ... I guess it's TECHNICALLY running... (Honestly though, this is a big step. Congrats WINE team!)

The shadows aren't correct, its Photoshoped.

Now if only I could get anything to work with wine...

this article title is SUCH a ***** tease....it isn't running until I can effectively use CS3's editing capabilities. Otherwise, what's the point?

Cool,I'm really happy with wine!
I testing wine on Ubuntu.. it runs all steam games i have, and CS2!

In other news, the number of pirated copies of Photoshop CS3 skyrockets.

Now if only I could get CS3 to stop crashing on Vista...

/sigh

Says it runs, didn't say it runs well.

I'm glad, CS3 is way better than CS2.
Hopefully one day Adobe will release a native version for Linux.

Adobe should get together with WINE and sell a modified CS3 WINE bundle that pretty much installs like in Windows. Easy fix for them, more money for them, more money for WINE devs, win/win.

Adobe products are the only thing keeping me on Windows now. If the whole CS3 suite was available natively for linux I would ditch windows in a flash. I thought about going to OSX on my desktop too, but spending £400 on upgrading my hardware for windows gave me the same performance as a £1649 Mac Pro.

Please Adobe - give us native linux apps!

Does anyone know if Visual Studio 2005 can run in WIne?

This pleases me.

Not that I'd ever use Photoshop - for my needs it's surely overkill, and the price tag only deters me further.

But running this one app, Photoshop CS3, is one of the things you see people harping on and on and on about on Digg. Apparently Linux is incomplete without it, or something. As it was when it couldn't run PS CS2.

Now that it can be run, it's not going to take long for it to be fully functional in Wine, and that will at least shut people up until Adobe releases CS4.

Unfortunately Adobe's pricing is really unfair for the rest of the World (other than US). Their products cost almost double in Europe. I would love to purchase Photoshop or Illustrator at the US prices, but not at European ones.

So I'd rather use GIMP, or other image editing applications that don't cost an arm and a leg.

Get your act together Adobe!

"running" does not just mean being able to load it up, it also entails being able to use it's actual capabilities as well, buried as innaccurate

Define work. Is it "work" as in the Linux "it only crashes occasionally and most features are broken" definition, or "work" as in the Apple "it always works no matter what" definition?

"One of the advantages Ubuntu /Linux has over OS X is that it’s possible to run Windows applications." Umm...ever heard of DarWine?

While I suppose that it's goot that the program runs as far as it does, it really really looks like it is more than two weeks away. Those are stunning bugs in the program. So much that calling it "running" is a major mishandling of the facts.

oh boy! The Mac fanboys are out in force over at that blog

I am getting sick and tired of Linux and Windows users trying to bash macs every chance they can get. I truly wonder why mac users have such a bad rap. I use macs, I love linux and appreciate all development on it..

And no, WINE is not linux only.. You can compile it for OSX, and there is even a project called Darwine that ports it to OSX with a nice GUI. There is also a commercial version called Crossover. Benefit of using OSX? Photoshop just runs natively! In fact, the whole CS3 suite runs perfectly. And word 2008 runs natively... on and on... And THEN you have Darwine!

Buried for inaccuracy:

"One of the advantages Ubuntu /Linux has over OS X is that it’s possible to run Windows applications. "

Ever heard of Darwine? It's the Mac port of Wine. Yeah, your entire first paragraph makes you look like a noob.

This was a triumph,
I'm making a note here, HUGE SUCCESS

*shrug*

I am a non alcoholic

Soldner? That game sucked!!

Honestly, I haven't tried CS3, so I can't say how much of an improvement it is over its predecessors. But is this even that big of deal? I mean most previous versions of Photoshop already run fine in WINE. To me what really needs to be brought over now is Premiere or any other NLE.

I installed CS2 in WINE in Mandriva and Mint with no problems at all.Now, let's try installing CS3 =)
Hope in runs well when it's installed, that it not only installs well.

I know this is gonna get dugg down but honestly as long I can run world of warcraft and all my adobe programs i really have no reason to use windows. So in the words of the ghosts from starcraft "I'm gone..."

Gimme Lightroom.

"As you can see the GUI is not correctly rendered yet."

Then no, Photoshop CS3 does not run under Wine.

I agree. Adobe needs to get Linux versions of their products on the market. Instead they make "Air". Who gives a crap about another cross platform programming system? The web is the cross platform development system of choice. It's already here.

Why anyone bothers with Wine anymore is beyond me. Virtual Machines are the way to go.
