It is all ready known but it is a good article. I have got DoomIII and Unreal T. installed on my linux box. Both run really well.

but imagin if an article like this was written 4 years ago, or even 2 years ago. we would probobly see it as another one of microsofts scripted reviews that we all hate. but it is very true. linux isnt there for gaming yet simply because it just reccently hit mainstrream. but i realy do feal that in a coupla years linux will come out on top. mabye even faster if ATi could just get on the ball. mabye if we just had a widespread nasty virus crashing all of the ATi windows machines while leaving the linux boxes allone, they might just get a little sence in them.
