I wish I could predict the future ;-)

Ableton Live is a nice program. And, there are certainly areas of audio 
applications where Linux does not fare as well as Mac or Windows 
software today. Then again, there are a lot of applications on Linux 
that don't have a comparable match on Windows or Mac.

So, if you need Ableton Live, yes: use that. In fact, find the 
application that you need first. And then purchase the OS/HW that you 
need to run that application (I don't know why people work the other way 
around.)

Like Greg, I too work in the field, perhaps a bit differently. And, we 
use linux (and windows and mac) everyday.
