Linux Steam Clues [Nov 29, 2008, 4:42 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Linux lovers at
Phoronix have word that a number of Linux libraries are included in the
no-longer-active demo for Left 4 Dead, which they call "additional
confirmation that Valve Software has ported their Steam game client to Linux."
Their write-up actually wavers between speculation and certainty, but they place
a lot of weight on the fact that these Linux libraries are within the Windows
demo, not the Linux server, and bolster their case that native Linux support is
in the works at Valve by reminding us that Running with Scissors has
confirmed plans for a Linux version of Postal III, and that Postal
III will use Valve's Source engine.
Linux will never make it as a replacement for Windows on the Desktop, let alone as a gaming machine, lol, give me a break, Linux sucks for gaming, always has, always will.
There is a reason software/hardware manufacturers/developers in the main do not support Linux, and that reason isn't going away anytime soon.
I used Linux for a number of years, the best thing I ever done was get out of that Linux induced mentality, get away from the Linux Zealots, get away from Linux, and use an OS that CAN actually do EVERYTHING I want to do, and do it with ease, something which Linux, unfortunately, can not do, and probably never will.
