Hello Alex
My experience iss that many users just want to play with there computers and this works better with MS. I had installed a view Systems for Computer Newbies and Beginners and they learned very fast to work and handle Linux. But the second question was "and games ....."
A fiew firms thinking of change from Microsoft to Linux but this is a hard way for the companies when they had specific Software for Microsoft and paid for this much money.
But for example last year I worked for the Fraunhofer Institut they are looking for answers on linux based System ,,,, and it works very well
So I hope the games will also change to Linux for a better Life ;)

Hi Dirk,
I know that problem and wine won't help, thus I will install a naked W98
or XP for the couple of games I like to play. I tried some of the linux
games when I was bored over christmas but I didn't manage to get them
running (torcs & racer).
Anyway... I am just a 'normal' user not a pro and thus I will reduce Windows to my personal playstation.

PS: There are more and more games coming out for Linux but I want only my old Need for Speed III and V running so if there is a possibility under Linux, I am happy to try it ;)
Then there is winex that seems to be geared for gamers. I haven't tried it though.
