    Thanks to Eclipse, I've pretty much migrated my company's game development over to Linux.

    The NVidia OpenGL Linux drivers appear to be up to date and very good.

    Honestly, I would have prefered OS X but the Apple OpenGL drivers ARE A FUCKING PATHETIC JOKE. KDE compared to OS X is painful to use. And I sorely miss Cocoa and Interface Builder. Although I do hope there is a special place in hell for the people responsible for Xcode at Apple...

    We'll still ship for Microsoft OS's of course, but it is a nice clean feeling to not have to touch that crap on a daily basis anymore.

    Just get me a native Linux version of iTunes and I'll be set...

    Demo? You can get the playable warez copy from your favorite BT site ;)
    I actually preorderd mine, but I have some friends that need to play it first to be sure that their rigs can take it.

    Apparently the moderators didn't feel the same.

    It's just a shame I couldn't get those lines to integrate with the parent.
