    Heh... You might say that.

        Regarding the sales bumps in the article:
        hopefully Valve is greedy enough to actually do the Linux port.

          You left out the cost of having an employee of your already small studio moderate a forum that had more trolls than Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy.

              And +1 for it being brutally true at the same time!

                It could also be called "AMD Time"- it took them about 6 more months to have the tech info to drive their chips in the community's hands than Michael'd planned for once they allowed him to "leak" that little bit of info.

                • Well, here's what I saw in my flash forward:
                  There I am, standing in a large crowd. I am in the USA. I can tell by peoples accent. And there is this white building and in front of this building stands an african american looking man in a suit. He is having a victory speech about a second term or something. I am hooked but I keep feeling awesome about this game I bought earlier that day. It's Half-Life 2: Episode 3. I bought it because... that same day Valve released a Linux client.

                  And then I woke up on my desk. I'm looking at Ktorrent and I am seeing that I'm two minutes and seventeen seconds closer to the end of my download of Fedora.

                    And then the world ends.
