Premiere and After Effects, if those were ported to linux it would be the happiest day of my life, then i could finally start living in a world without boundries, not one with gates and windows.
Photoshop, absolutely Photoshop. Say what you say, the GIMP is not nearly as easy and powerful as Photoshop. I believe you can achieve the same with GIMP, though, but it's simplier in Photoshop.
I agree that there are alot of IM clients but I wan to see a client with video chat (yes Iknow there is gnome meeting, great if all your family and friends including grandma, hava a properly configured version of gnome meeting themselves) would this be too difficult to develop an app compatable with MSN protocols, we talk alot about the Linux revolution and Linux on the average home pc, well avarage home pc users like things like video chat.
Magix Music Studio would be awesome. There are no really good studio programs for linux right now. Audacity is about it but good as it is there isn;t much else. (plus i'd love to be able to get rid of windows for good.
1. Parental Control Software
2. Any awesome games
3. A decent spreadsheet program (OpenOffice.org's spreadsheet program sucks)
4. A disk defragmenter
5. Antivirus software
6. Dragon NaturallySpeaking, or bring back IBM ViaVoice for Linux
