Great to see Unigine pretty much the same between the two OS's, especially considering Linux has no real quality development put into the graphics side of things.
These tests show that Linux is maturing in the gaming and graphics. We are in a great period where opportunity for game makers opened up by mobile Linux devices prominence. Linux has a special placing in mobile area that Microsoft can't meet any time soon. People simply don't want Windows Mobile 7, or other operating system that are limited and suppressive. Apple is the only exceptions to this rule as they are attracting people who are buying an fashion image, not so much computing.
All Linux fields should be dedicating all their emphasis on graphics drivers, 3d standards, and quality of use, or the opportunity will be lost.

Interesting piece...
Can't help but notice the P4X system seems to have a severe CPU-bottleneck, at least in those benchmarks. The extra core doesn't do much good there, does it?
One thing I miss though, is maybe a short summary of the in-game settings used for those who have never used PTS.
@Michael, on page 3:
The Clarkdale system was playable at 800 x 600 through 1280 x 1024 with Nexuiz, but even at 800 x 600, the open-source Intel graphics driver used by Ubuntu 10.04 LTS put out just six frames per second.
And page 1, I think the "it's already running" link should be placed after the "Steam client" one, really
