Lazernaut Registered 08/09/2002 Points 1103	11th May, 2009 at 13:22:20 - I've loved Ubuntu since i tried it the first time. I think that was version 5 or so, and i still have the official CD for version 6 I prefer Linux in all areas. The problem is that i like to play games, and most games haven't been compiled to run on Linux, and i don't exactly think running World of Warcraft in Wine is such a great solution So yeah - professional game developers: COMPILE YOUR STUFF FOR LINUX TOO DAMN YOUS shakes fist! n/a

What is it? kickass linux distribution. yeah i still dual boot with xp pro for playng games, and game creation. if the rumors are true though steam is working on porting the source engine to linux. which means a ton of games and mods on linux. n/a

It revolves around open source, so you have a lot of tools freely available, and flexibility too. Now if only CT would port MMF to Linux.. _ CodeCannon http://www.dringletopia.da.ru/
