A co-worker of mine used Arris for years and loved it. He still murmurs aboutit's ability to do things that @#$%CAD still can't. Armed with that rousing endorsement, I contacted Arris and they told me that since moving over to the Windoze platform they have no intention of porting to Linux. Too bad, I think they're missing out on a great market segment.
