Again, I say: It's never going to happen with a few exceptions. It's simply unlikely the majority of CC apps will ever come to an operating system that, depending on which studies you trust, only makes up anywhere from 3 to 11 percent of all desktop computers, many of which aren't even used for creative design, when it's going to cost them millions and it would take 20 years to recover those losses. If you consider, that this was a much more profitable market with the cheapest SGI workstations costing an arm and a leg, the signs are clear. You can even cite history here: We all were mightily disappointed when Adobe ceased development of Photoshop on IRIX way back then. Compared to what they can make with existing Mac and Windows users, this is negligible.

Similar observations could be made for other programs - if a tool started out as an in-house development (Nuke for instance) or a reasonably large single customer requests that some piece of software exists on Linux, then it's likely it may happen, but as far as Adobe is concerned, it's really not their market. For instance Modo only exists on Linux because Disney and Digital Domain wanted it (and helped with finances and development) and now other big facilities like MPC have adopted it, too.

Yes, Linux is reasonably widespread in some circles like 3D, but even there it merely represents a fraction of the overall user base. If you ask 'normal' users at advertising and design agencies and such, you will barely find anyone having even heard of Linux or replies like 'Our file server runs on it.' They just won't put up with it for their daily workflows. i will buy adobe products when there is support for linux main distros ( such as Debian, Red Hat. Your surroundings are coloring your perceptions. The market is there, it's just not developed!!! I have talked to many different people who dual boot or at least play with Linux, and I ask them why they haven't switched completely and almost all of them say because they still need the Creative Cloud.
