Over the last several years I've read several articles on studios moving to Linux, I think it's for the base OS, rather than using the free software provided for editing videos.

However, what it comes with, from personal experience of using it, is rather powerful - but I'm no studio editor. I would say on par with Wax, but not so limited on the time-line, but like Wax they can load the plugins of the other video editors, making them them each work similar and often exactly the same, as the top editors.
