    I'm excited to see what kind of performance difference there is between the Win32 and the linux client.

    The Native Linux Client for Quake 3 ran MUCH faster for me than in Windows....to the point that I stopped playing Q3A in Windows altogether, simply because I could crank my Resolution much higher in Linux and it ran perfectly (like 100 FPS).

    I hope it's the same for Doom3....It'll be like a free hardware upgrade.
