Frustrating to read.

Maybe he is not allowed to talk yet. I can't wait for the official client and game, because I think when the games start rolling in, the video driver and other problems in Linux will be fixed faster. Then I could use Linux again. It's sad that I currently can't run Linux reliably because of my dual-graphic card (sandy bridge + ati) notebook :(

What are you running? I'm on OS X atm, but I've always dreamt of running something like an HP Envy 14 w/ Linux

#6Perversely, I grew to like the fact that Linux doesn't really have many games for it. I think we could say that I lost many hours of my life to MMOs and RPGs, though perhaps "lost" should be in scare quotes. It's kind of the same reason that I don't own consoles or a television -- I lost as large a chunk of my life to watching Star Trek as I lost to playing Morrowind, after all.
With hope, I am now mature enough to overcome temptation. So I wish all of my fellow Lingeeks: happy gaming.

#7So, when are the jokes about this being the year of linux on the desktop going to start?
Not being negative about the possibility, I do think that games are a large stumbling block to that endgame.

I made this joke as soon as I saw the article: https://twitter.com/#!/Smotko/status/195057443674406912 :)
