The problem with Target-exclusive products is there will be no way to read reviews as there will be essentially none online. And I don't buy anything of substance without researching it.

I have used xara for years. I maintain an old windows machine just for xara. It is an outstanding drawing and for me a one page or smaller layout program. Great for print ads and web graphics work.

It does not compete with The Gimp.

The windows version is very easy to use. Hope the linux version uses the same interfaces.

Woohoo!!! Gets me excited about linux again.
