    If you can connect on internet, and you can run games wich uses internet to play on-line... why not?
    When using Windows, have you ever told "Ehi... do your business?"

    there is no shockwave for GNU/Linux so if any games use it, you can't play them..... java and flash are fine though.

    If the games will work on another distro, it should work with Debian. Is that what you were wondering about?

    The problem I have been having is trying to get into a website like EA Games where you need to have shockwave on the first page to do anything...bah. I always have to find a back door in.
