You sure have a unique way of welcoming people. Can I ask why you think it's nuts? It's no nuttier than the many other apps people want ported to linux.
Google play store. I like to run some android apps in linux.
That's a pretty big ask. While Android is based (at its core) on linux, it would take a lot to allow Android apps to run on top of Linux; almost as much as running Windows programs on Wine. However, you can already do it using Virtualbox or VMWare pretty well, and some of the Android X86 projects are producing very nice Android distributions, which are often more suited to non-touch environments.
Agreed! Actually I was very happy with Amaya, but it no longer works, as it relies on obsolete libraries that will no longer load in Ubuntu and derivatives
Distribution: Linux Mint(The best and most beautiful)

I would like to know if anyone has any knowledge about Harmony One Remotes. I know that they work with Windows. I would like to see them work with Linux.

Hi Fred.
BlueGriffon and Kompozer are good but are very old.

Kompozer is old, but BlueGriffon is HTML5 and CSS3; it was updated not so long ago, and a new major version is due out soon apparently. A major overhaul.

Adobe After Effects, there currently is no REAL video compositing software for linux that I know of. Jahshaka tried.. bless it's little heart..
As mentioned, Nuke exists, and in fact most Foundry products are available for Linux. There's a learning curve, but as someone versed in Foundry and not in Adobe, I'd say the same was true for After Effects.
