Debunking Linux and its Relationship with Gaming

,----[ Quote ]
| I’m tired of people who are afraid to switch to Linux because of its so 
| called “lack of games, or at least good ones.” What I think is they just want  
| the games they like ported to Linux instead of trying new ones.

What Do We Really Want From Linux?

,----[ Quote ]
| ...the vast majority of distributions are so specialized that this is not as 
| bad an issue as it might seem. It usually boils down to something like Ubuntu 
| vs. Red Hat.  
| 
| I do agree that there needs to be incarnations of Linux that are as 
| comfortable as possible to use on the desktop -- something for Joe CD-ROM, as 
| it were. But I don't believe the whole of Linux as we know it has to be 
| remade to make that possible. Ubuntu has tackled the problem in a practical 
| way, by building (and continuously improving) a desktop-friendly distribution 
| that has drawn popular attention to Linux like little else before it.
