The fastest computers on the planet run Linux. It is the most popular
OS on the planet (or soon will be). If there is a task there is an
application for it.


In all seriousness... Is there a Linux DTP even remotely comparable to
Ventura? I ask, because I anticipate doing a series of user manuals, and
they will be done in Ventura.


The latest version (as of July 2013) is Corel Ventura 10 (2002), this
version runs in Windows 8 (x86/64) with compatibility mode (w2k) and
copy "mfc42.dll" in programs corel folder. Also run over linux ubuntu
13.04 / wine, inclusive in live usb mode.

Is running it in "compatibility mode" on modern Win machines any better
than running in a compatibility mode on Ubuntu?
