I'm aware of this. But can something be more specialized than 3d
modelling? And there's blender :-)

In fact, Linux used to be the homeland for specialized stuff - from
scientific applications to ham-radio...

It doesn't work in Fedora as GUI, I already tried it. In fact, the only
version they support is redhat 6.2. Sad to us.

And oh yeah, one company which exports vegetable fibers (and was using
redhat 9 and fedora) just switched back about 90% of their machines,
because they do need thousands of labels printed a day (for the packages
which go inside of ship containers), and most of the office's conputers
prints at night...
