MotionGenesis: F=ma Software, textbooks, training, consulting.   MotionGenesis™ for other operating systems   ?

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.
