It appears Gabe Newell was serious about opening Steam for Linux and Nvidia and possibly AMD are jumping on the wagon.

Even Unity is going to do a Linux export. I only wish it( the editor) would run on Linux, but apparently that's not going to happen any time soon.
Currently using Blender and Unity.

Now Unity can stand for 3 things. A Linux distro, the name of Ubuntu's new desktop, and now a 3D game engine for Linux :)

Still think Gabe is fighting an uphill battle, but it's good news for Linux advocates that have been longing for more games. Upgrading from Cube to TF2 will be a nice change.

Ha, I only knew about the Ubuntu desktop. They used to have really weird names for everything, like Gimp, now they are trying to be more normal or whatever.
Currently using Blender and Unity.
