Being able to play the games from the Orange Box on Linux in Wine is exactly what I would like to do. Unfortunately, hacking around in Wine for hours scares me a little.
It would be really cool if you could write a quick “How-To make TF2 & Portal working in Wine 0.9.4x”.
(This could maybe be cross posted to http://wine-review.blogspot.com/ ?)
You know, Freelancer doesn’t even run correctly on Vista, and Microsoft are shutting down the Freelancer global multiplayer server next year (rumour I heard). Microsoft is abandoning their customers. If Microsoft are going to abandon them, then Wine is going to support the software instead.
Wine+Linux is starting to become a feasible upgrade alternative for Windows 2000/XP users, in both gaming and business.
