Question:
|
Why is MotionGenesis™ not constantly updated for Linux, Ubuntu, etc.?
|
Answer:
|
We frequently update our software for PC/Windows and MacOSX.
|
|
Some operating systems are less cost effective than PC/Windows and MacOSX.
|
|
Costs to maintain MotionGenesis™ for each operating system include:
|
|
- Purchase computers and/or software for virtual machines.
- Purchase, install, and upgrade operating system and compiler tools.
- Purchase, install, and upgrade 3rd-party tools (Installers, Java, Gnuplot, ...).
- Pay experts to develop end-user software for each operating system.
|
Purchase:
|
Contact Motion Genesis to purchase a professional, research, or 8+ student version
of our software for operating systems other than PC/Windows and MacOSX.
|
For MotionGenesis™, the ratio of request for PC/Windows (or MAC OSX)
to that of Linux/other operating system is ≈ 300 to 1.
Updating Linux/other operating systems is more cost-effective for purchases
that are significantly larger than a single-user student version.
