The good news is that the G-Force codebase is 100% POSIX compatible. The bad news is that we unfortunately have no present plans for a linux release given our other priorites and new product development. It'd be just too tough to offer support for linux right now for us, given the myriad of hardware that's out there.

Unfortunately, a small company (like SoundSpectrum) has to create products for where the customers are. Spending money developing, maintaining, and supporting software for a community that isn't known for supporting commercial software will just cause us to go out of business (and then everybody loses).
