Just like there isn't an video editing suits, photo editing suits, web creations suites, audio editing, office applications or anything else that is comparable to whats available on the Windows platform.

However, You can have the "fun things with wifi" :rolleyes:
Have a look at this site (http://hof.povray.org/).
I wonder why Weta studios bothers to use Linux if it is as useless as you say.

1264196 2012-03-29 09:27:00 Wetas Linux machines would be one purpose machines I would say. We have a couple like that, runs one program. If we ever actually had to use the OS we wouldn't be using it.

Jut thinking, giving your mum Linux is probably on par with giving her herpes

And I'm sure their operating system is as custom built and as specialized as their hardware.

Its like trying to claim an Ford escort is a superior wagon because the same factory that made the suspension struts done some work for an F1 team.

I've spent more on a meal, And that gets flushed.

But, then the meal is reincarnated with shrinkwrapping and a magical "Certificate Of Authenticity", you won't get that sort of service with Linux ;)
