Okay, so you would advise someone who bought, say, Photoshop on a Mac OS to consider that cost sunk, and then to purchase what on Linux?
Gimp for Linux. It's free even.
On top of that the Photoshop license is not os specific. You can use it for Windows or osx.
Gimp has a small subset of Photoshop features... That's... Common knowledge
Ok? And Photoshop license isn't for just osx... you're literally proving the point that you can migrate but you don't want to because of some stupid allegiance to apple
I... Don't like Apple at all. I'm engaging in a thing called a thought experiment, which is required to rationally assess why somebody might not want to throw away things they have purchased and devote both more time and more money to something that doesn't work as well as it.
So I don't know what all the cool killer Mac apps. Replace Photoshop with the name of a bunch of cool killer Mac apps, and repeat the question.
Well if you're playing devil's advocate then I guess ok? But that's a tough job on this one, as there are very little pros to sticking with apple.
