The only issue is that they are claiming that Open GL version runs better then the Direct X version is we really do not know if they are the same graphic detail.
Is it not safe to assume that Valve know the ins and outs of their own games?
How many are really still holding onto their 2.x installs like myself? Using GNOME for about 10 years now and am looking for a decent replacement for 2.32 (or until gentoo gets rid of 2.x)
I recently switched to Xfce 4.8, and I find it being a good GNOME 2.x replacement (if you change the very odd panel layout to something more gnome-like). If you cherry-pick some of the (better?) GNOME applications to go along with you for the update, it'll make the transition even easier (like gedit, gnome-screensaver and possibly nautilus).
Second: You cannot compare current (amps) to power (watt) like it was done in the summary. Power is the product of current and voltage (P=U*I, or P=V*I if you're American). 2 mA can in fact be 100% of the amount drawn by a 100W light bulb if the voltage across the light bulb is 50kV (50000*0.002 = 100) (Assuming the bulb was built for 50kV, but that is a whole different story)

First of all: it was 0.002 amps, not 0.002 watt.

I once coded for a free MMO
This wouldn't happen to be the MMO wherein there is a lot of Entropy, if you know what I mean?
