SW06 is going to be 64-bit. As for linux I doubt that will happen for sometime.

Paul,

Without an exact Linux-native analog of the MFC libraries, SW for Linux would pretty much be a complete rewrite, not a port.

I think one of the biggest problems with SW quirkyness, and stability, is that it uses too many Microsoft components. Most of these were written to drive word processors, spread sheets, and multi-media stuff. Not parametric solid modelers.

Based on what i've seen during the installation and the work with the latest version of SW, It's based on the .net framework and not on MFC. That means a simplified porting using mono on Linux.
