  As far as I know Avid doesn’t run on linux.
  If you want to be able to take advantage of avid tech suport than i would get an avid qualified PC or mac.

  avid can be pickey about motherboards/chipsets.
  do some research on the user forums at the avid website. over there you have a lot of people running unqualified pcs with sucess.
