NetFlix Where Art Thou ?

,----[ Quote ]
| OK...I think we can put the old wive's tale to bed that Linux Users just 
| don't spend money. 
| 
| 2DBoy will be the first to punch a pin in that bubble.
| 
| I could have linked the same data with a personal quote from Kyle from 2DBoy 
| in my blog but that wouldn't have proven much. The fact that Linux Users  
| absolutely destroyed all previous first-day sales of World Of Goo by 40% is a 
| powerful indicator.

| This is the kind of update that deserves its own blogpost just to make this
| heard. It is excellent news and I believe sends out quite a strong message to
| anyone who is paying attention.

Here’s to reaching the “Games for Linux” tipping point

,----[ Quote ]
| To get Games for Linux (no TM yet) we need to reach a tipping point, either
| on the side of Gamers which will convince the Publishers that there is a
| market, or on the side of Publishers which will allow enough gamers to try
| the OS out without much gaming withdrawal. Lets hope that the results for the
| WoG experiment will be another small push towards that point.
