[TriLUG] Linux Gaming

[Bill Farrow]

Yep, I'm hijacking this thread - well, sort of...  two items of Linux
Gaming news:

CrossOver Linux will be free for 24 hours on Oct 31st.  Basically,
this program lets you run Windows applications and games on Linux,
sometimes faster than Windows on the same hardware.

Apparently Valve announced at UDS that everyone with launchpad account
will be invited to the Steam "Beta 4".  Someone with more (recent)
gaming experience should step in here and comment on what "Steam" is
all about.

This blog post talks about Beta 3 which is currently underway, Beta 4
will open it to more "experienced Linux users"...
