So you write the nonsense above. Why do you lie? The only "Windows games" you play are the archaic ones from five or more years ago. Even then, the performance you get out of them on your Linux desktop is a fraction of what you would get from the same machine in Windows. You don't play "Windows games," you play "bargain bin sell-offs nobody wants anymore." -- Silver Slimer
