Wine is not an emulator

Photoshop runs at fine speed on it, i'm currently trying to get Freehand to run since some have reported it working on winehq.org

Freehand doesn't work yet, but for other apps do a search because they have diferent level of support, the gold medal were everithing runs fine and the silver were it runs with some glitches, etc..

Edit: the free wine runs alot more apps but of course you have to configure-it yourself....

Yeah, the suite should run on Linux because it sure as heck don't run well on Windows. :scream:

I don't know what they coded for while making the MX2004 Suite, but boy did they hit more than a few nasty snags. Its so buggy I steered clear of upgrading my MX suite. :rolleyes:
no danke
