Gaming going to linux...
So you all knows Valve has stated an intention to make like a linux based steam box...
The thing about this is, I think Valve has more pull in the PC game industry than anyone else. Valve could single-handedly pull the PC gaming world to linux. |

Steam for linux, not new news, and neither is a dedicated linux box of any sort, lol. I'm a linux guy and hate windows, but even I can see you're trying to start shit. You are such an apple fan-  that you'll say anything to cut windows down and push apple products. You don't "NEED" windows for gaming anyways. |

Yeah, and Linux gaming was going to take off when id released Quake 3 for Linux back in '99, too. I think that and Heavy Gear 2 were the only noticed Linux games that came from that particular revolution. I still have the tin box Linux Q3 in my closet somewhere. I wonder if it's worth anything...

Difference between Quake 3 and Steam on linux is that, Quake 3 is one game, Steam is one of the major PC game distribution platforms... |
