  3. Re:Year of... on Valve Shares Performance Numbers On Port of Left4Dead · · Score: 0

    My question for Valve is, why did it take them this long to port
    games to Linux? Did their janitor remove his headphones that
    one time and told them, hey I know this! And get on the phone
    to contact his homies about this crew (yea Valve, toldja before)
    that needed help boosting the FPS on nvidia, and bring some
    sandwiches, yeah Hold the mayo. Make it two. And no ice in the
    soda, remember what happens when it melts?
