There are no problems, only business opportunities (and transaction
costs :( ). So corporate buyers don't know to ask for Linux
versions? Go straight to the techies and give them a product name
(foobar EDA for Linux) and number (#355334) to order. Then, when
the orders start arriving, go to the EDA vendor and say "I want to
resell the Linux version of your software." Say this regardless of
whether they have a version or not. If you're successful, they WILL
come up with a version.
As the guy from Informix said to fyl, "I just typed ``make''".
[ note: there are significant legal liabilities incurred with this
business method. Talk to your lawyer. ]
