We run $100,000+ commercial EDA software on Linux to design chips. It's great!
NVidia has a huge Linux based simulation farm. There are similar examples in
other domains (e.g. www.toonboom.com,...)

On the other hand some relatively cheap software like Adobe Framemaker just
didn't sell, and was discontinued even though Adobe supports other Unix systems.
You would think that companies would have been interested in this, but maybe the
techpubs guys are still using Solaris?
