Oh now that makes my previous posting look like I was cribbing from you!  I
wasn't as I deal with postings in a serial fashion.  Spooky though.

On balance I also happen to think that Steam choosing to rollout natively on
Linux may be a good thing for Linux usage in general.  I know plenty of techs
that still need a Windows machine in order to play the games they want to
play, so any initiative that contributes to erode Windows monopoly on the
desktop is a step in the right direction.
