Does Lightroom and photoshop work on ubuntu yet?As I said, you can, but you may have to compromise. I'm a gamer and I run Linux. I have a Windows partition that I only ever log into every few months. I guess it depends on the games you play. WoW runs flawlessly on Linux, and with the aforementioned Steam Play, a whole bunch of my 'Windows Only' games now also work without me having to do any tinkering. You'd also be surprised how much stuff Linux actually does support. It's not for everyone, but it's a darn site better than Windows is these days (IMHO) even if it isn't as polished.
My job doesn't let me work from home, so I don't have that hurdle and can't comment on it.
