Anime Studio Pro gambles on GNU/Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Released last month, the GNU/Linux version is the professional version
| of Anime Studio Pro. According to product manager Fahim Niaz, this
| version is intended for "professional and aspiring users" rather than
| the hobbyists who are the market for the basic version of the program.
| The Pro edition is particularly aimed at one-person studios, which lack
| the staff to create detailed animations quickly without computer
| assistance.

| Niaz expresses cautious hopes for the GNU/Linux version, noting the
| popularity of GNU/Linux ports of high-end programs like Maya, for whom the
| operating system offers greater stability than other platforms can offer. "We
| know that our user base has been wanting this product," Niaz says. "We're
| thinking we could take the market by storm."
