- What ProtonDB says and what reality is differ quite a lot.
- "Well you shouldn't do that because I said so." Irrelevant response.
- Yes, there are numerous jank plugins that all half-work. CMYK support is only the tip of the iceberg and it's enough to exclude GIMP from entire industries. I do not know why people keep mentioning Krita in the same breath as GIMP, given that it's fully cross-platform and is specifically geared towards illustration. I can use it on Windows or Mac just as easy as Linux. That's not a selling point for Linux, it's an example of why Linux isn't really needed in a given area.
- I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about the average user here. That's what people keep telling me in other responses. Since when did the command line matter to average users?
- Well, you know, maybe if Windows was more popular Sony would make a driver for it. This excuse works for hardware that doesn't work in Linux, so same should apply there.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
