    I'd go to the server and find out WHY windows is needed to install it onto Linux, but the server's gone. Is it just to "install" files?
    Still, I'm glad that Bioware is doing stuff on Linux. Even if it's only a release of a server on it, I'm happy. The way it looks, the developers are looking at Linux directly. The halfway house Loki did'nt have a business model. They regurgitate games to linux after a .5 year on WIndows.

    These guys are doing it right.

    By the way (very offtopic), but check out the First post. It's an ascii rendetion of goatse man. I saw it by looking at the first posters of this story. He was the only one. I guess I thought it was funny (like we havent been tricked into that link before ;-).
