You guys have made a great tool toconsidering you are building it on top of Eclipse.
develop with, it would be a shame to leave the Linux users out
I completely agree. It would be a shame to not release a Linux version of Flex Builder 2 being it based on the Eclipse Platform. And I enforce the point that the Linux market would be a viable one, no doubt.

If you look at the comments on James Ward's blog, there are people
asking about FlexBuilder there too. You guys have made a great tool to
develop with, it would be a shame to leave the Linux users out
considering you are building it on top of Eclipse. It appears there's
a market for it too; Keith and Darron just said they would use/buy it.
I know other Flex developers that are toying with Linux as well.
Anyway, I'm a Mac user, for many of the reasons that people like using
Linux. I'm glad that you have finally got a version of Flex Builder
for us underway.
