Disney, DreamWorks, Pixar Go Linux

robinsrowe writes "Most of the major studios use Linux -- such as DreamWorks with more than 1,500 Linux desktops and 3,500 Linux servers. The MovieEditor Conference is an all-day event on computer-based filmmaking in downtown Los Angeles on August 3rd. Studio technology chiefs and other experts discuss ongoing work using Linux in feature animation and visual effects. Presented in collaboration with LinuxMovies.org."

That explains their quality.

Movies are made with Linux, feature Apple product placement, and are download on Windows machines? Oh, the beauty of 3!
