My comment on transgaming was not so much to show games, but to mentions that
there are native Linux games as well as ways to run Windows games under Linux.

A minute or so covering the fact that gamers are not high & dry.

I figured if time was tight, there will be plenty of opportunity to see
installs, esp as Jeremy & I will be running a demo Mandrake install regularly
through out the day fo people to see & ask about. Not saying you shouldn't, but
if you find time is tight, you can maybe give that a lower priority.

Cheers....
