It is not that easy. Well, not that working with AMT is easy in general, but working with AMT and Linux is certainly not as easy as working with AMT and Windows, IMHO. And I think it is mainly due to fewer resources being available for Linux. But before I go any further with this topic I must state that AMT [...]
