Graphic creation wise, if you use Photoshop, Gimp is it's twin brother. Video wise, you just need to learn the software, it's more on par with a Mac with about 10,000 more 'free' software additions you can try.
As for pretty GUI, you can make it look like windows, other os's, totally unique, customize it yourself. It's not limited.
Windows is playing catch up to Linux.. not the other way around. Other than in the game department, which is closing the gap quickly.

Would be no good for me. I have CS4 Photoshop and CS4 Premiere Pro. Both tweaked up with batches and settings that I've worked on for years. So moving all of that over to a Linux machine with new software would be utltra time consuming...and I'm not sure that Gimp would do the trick for me replacing Photoshop...and since I'm a Premiere guy with video it would be a huge leap to try and move to another video editing software.  |
