I would love a native version of Poser that runs in Linux particularly as I am one of those that owns an aging but originally expensive machine that will not run Windows 11.  At the start of the year I had three PCs running Windows, two using Windows 7 and one on Windows 10.  Then the bank that I use withdrew support for Windows 7 on their online banking.  I realised this meant that, if the Windows 10 unit failed, I could no longer do Internet banking so I replaced my wife's PC with the micro PC with Windows 11 installed.  I was so impressed with the micro PC I then purchased another higher spec unit to replace my existing Windows 10 PC.  I now use that micro PC, running Windows 11, to do everything including Poser, with the exception that some large final renders are done on the old machine.  

To all intents a purposes this negates my need for a Poser Linux version but I would still love the option.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
