I've been using V-carve Pro, Aspire's "little brother" and have to say it is worth every penny of it's $600 price tag. I will definitely purchase Aspire as soon as I can afford it. It is without a doubt the most satisfying software purchase I've ever made and it runs without any problems under Wine. Free software is always good and open-source is even better but sometimes I just want to get the job done without a huge learning curve and working around quirky software.
