Something Seriously Missing In Avatar Movie Reviews

,----[ Quote ]
| Where are the accolades for Linux?
| 
| A review of the company that made the Linux 
| computer graphics happen, known as WETA 
| Digital (Wellington, New Zealand, a Peter 
| Jackson spin off company), is notoriously 
| absent from the articles.
| 
| The underlying operating system, Linux RHEL 
| (hundreds of HP blade servers running as Linux 
| cluster) is also utterly absent from even the 
| more technical news sources.

Linux, PhotoShop, And Disney.

,----[ Quote ]
| At around the same time as my trip to Walt Disney World (give or take a few
| years), the Disney animation studio was adopting Linux.  The animators wanted
| Photoshop running on Linux.  Since Adobe wasn't providing this, Disney
| decided to fund a project to port the Windows version of Photosop to run on
| Linux under Wine.  And that's why, thanks to Disney, Photoshop runs on Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| And that's the main point of today's blog post.  Photoshop runs on Linux!
| Some folks out there may not want to make the move to Linux because they
| think they wouldn't be able to use Photoshop.  Not so. Photoshop runs on
| Linux!
