this is old news. microsoft has used akamai for hosting and dns since microsoft's main 2 dns servers were DDOS'd a while ago. The really stupid part about that was that microsoft put both of there main 2 dns servers on the same newtork segment. doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that that isn't redundancy.
isn't a bat line yay! I'm a rocket scientist!!! (or wait --- (reads) ... er sry,,,,...)

I don't think it's so much that Windows is 'good' for games as much as you just don't have any other choice.

agreed, the games that i can run on linux, i get better performace generaly, if there were ports of all games to linux, then i have a disttinct feeling that M$ would lose even more hold. Especialy if corperations didint shut down things such as freecraft.

I downloaded the game the other day and its no where near warcraft (I just quit after 10 mins looked to 80's for me) but its a copy of warcraft so thats what counts. If you produced a commercial game and some developer did a copy would you just say ahh who cares?
