I already have.  As Corel (which bought Bibble -- strange -- if 
corporations are people, and corporations can buy other corporations, 
why cannot non-incorporated real human people buy other non-incorporated 
real human people -- perhaps because corporations are not people but 
merely engines of avarice) effectively was bought by Microsoft a number 
of years ago, their technical support for Linux is not superb.  
Otherwise, Corel would keep (as does VirtualBox owned by Oracle, a 
parent corporation that competes with Red Hat for EL for-profit 
"support") versions around that are in fact directly compatible with 
most distros. Interestingly, the IA-32 version (32 bit linux) runs fine 
under IA-32 SL 6x.

Speaking of which, is there any other workflow package that works as 
well or better directly under Linux (I do not mean Photoshop under MS 
Windows under VirtualBox under Linux -- I do mean native)?  I have tried 
gimp, but the import facilities for imaging vendor proprietary image 
formats ("raw", e.g., Nikon NEF) is not as effective.  I do not run Mac 
OS X (a typical image manipulation environment) because none of our 
primary machines (both fixed workstations as well as laptops) are sold 
by Apple and thus it is software piracy in the USA to run Mac OS X on 
such machines (Apple will not sell a license for Mac OS X for non-Apple 
machines ) -- otherwise Mac OS X with fink or the equivalent might be a 
solution.
