Not likely -- Adobe Unix stuff runs only under Irix (and -- I think -- 
SunOS/Solaris). Obviously graphic design under Windows is a drag -- might
I suggest MacOS? There's a damn good reason MacOS has been the premier
platform for graphic design for ten years: interface. (Funny you should
ask; why yes, I *am* harping on this topic...)

Until Adobe wakes up to Linux, we'll have to gimp along with The GIMP.
(Give it a run and you'll see why they call it that. Sad to say, The GIMP
has a long way to go.)
