Hi All,
The sales guys have asked me a question. What commercially "recognisable" software is available AND supported on Linux. They gave "MYOB"[1] and "Star Office". They don't want stuff that runs via emulators (wine etc), or virtual machines (VMWare, BOCHS etc) - they want real, native Linux ELF binaries :) Desktop software is preferred as there is plenty for the backend. Also, little "do a single task" apps (like Real Player, and Acrobat Reader) aren't really what they're after either. Open/closed source, BSD/GPL/other isn't a factor.
So how about it folks? What have you seen/heard of that is offered as a NATIVE Linux app and is commercially produced/supported etc. Any links or publisher's websites would be most beneficial.
Cheers,
James
[1] Word has it they (MYOB) are releasing a native Linux version some time next year.
