I'd be surprised if Adobe isn't at least looking into this, especially considering their sometimes sour relationship without Apple.

A lot of the more "arty" people I know would consider giving them a Windows computer to use as a personal insult and would probably be more open to switching to Linux than Windows.

Getting arty people to use desktop Linux could be a huge net positive if they decide to help "pretty" the place up a bit.



It's certainly nice when UI/UX people run GNU/Linux distributions. Daniel Foré is in charge of Elementary OS [1]. Because he's a designer, the project already has a proper set of Human Interface Guidelines [2], a set of uniquely designed (and easy to use) core applications [3], and a beautifully coherent look to the entire OS and website.
