The Linux users have paid for the hardware, same as everyone else. All they're asking for is the minimum specifications so they can write the software to make it work themselves.
Rather than derision id should be given thanks for further showing the usefulness of GPL'd software!
Previously id has shown how to encourage the longevity of your brand by releasing the code under a permissive license, and now id is providing an example of how to effectively utilize other's GPL'd software.
And, as noted by other posters, this is old news. The oversight has already been corrected.
Power of Slackware but the ease of Debian? You want Arch Linux. i686, slackware-based, slick package management, gentoo-style external ports for at-will rebuilding, massive user-supplied package set, solid.
The physical commodities in use by the common man may not impress or befuddle a centurion but the modern advances in physics, computation, and math would certainly appear to be quite impressive.
About 5 minutes of work from me and another 30 minutes waiting for the transfer. (The first time).
I have a high turn-over rate within my set of machines in common use. In the past 7 years I've owned about 9 distinct machines.
Some time ago I began exploring my options for rapid deployment of, as you put it, "home". First off I began minimizing the number of packages I have installed, and of those I do actually use I can rapidly recall and install with ease via aptitude. Anything I forget is either unimportant or recalled and installed at a later date.
For my home directory I loooked at using rsync, but that seemed to lack simple bi-directional unification and simple gui interaction. I looked at version controlling the entire thing but that seemed overkill. Eventually I ran across Unison.
Unison, though a little crufty, performs bi-directional syncing adequately. Now switching across Laptop/Desktop is relatively seamless, where in the worst case I merely have to perform a sync. Depending on how long it's been this can take anywhere from 30 seconds to 20 minutes, but that deviation is more my fault and an inevitable result of my tardiness.
I believe Unison has a Windows port, but seeing as how Windows lacks a decent package management and deployment system I suppose your stuck with iteratively installing each application.
I think the following quote sums it up nicely: "I needed something larger for the kids and all the sports equipment and friends they want me to haul around," Freed said. "It also feels safer to be in a bigger car. And driving an SUV makes me feel less x like a taxi driver for the kids and more like I'm driving for my own pleasure."

Notice how SUV commercials predominantly feature female drivers, that appear to be the ideal middle-aged mother?
Anyone else recall that recent commercial where the mother goes shopping with her son and the son chooses to run off and hold another Mother's hand as a result of her failure to purchase the safest SUV?
They're targeting insecure Moms, not insecure Men.

Who will just use the full edition, without paying.
So why is this being made at all?
I stopped watching because of RTD. He can burn in hell.

There are more Linux gamers than Mac gamers.
We don't spend nearly as much on military.
You rock
I'd pay for Ubuntu-branded persistent personal storage.
It's easy, then.
The Blender devs should respond with a trite
"Please stop blocking the OpenGL 3.0 standards process so we can move forward with our work."
Fine.
Use those products.
As others have pointed out, there's no reason you can't use those under Linux anymore.
See: Wine, Cedega and Citrix
Using it right now connected to an external LCD at 1280x1024. It's snappy.

Guess it just feels like slackware, then. :)

Oh really?
It ramps up after that, certainly. But to say intervention wasn't foreign policy is simply ignorant.

... So why do you hate him?
I know why Americans hate him (ZOMG, Socialist Dictator, Low-Class Ethnicity), why do you hate him?
Now that's just crazy liberal propaganda there. ;)
Ogre + Blender
The latest Blender revisions offer tight integration with Ogre, not entirely unlike UnrealEd.
XBMC lets me do that... Quite fun actually, even on the projector.
That game is ten years old but still megafun due to the user-generated maps.
And why would they want to encourage continued use of ten-year-old product?
I'd ask if I could take OGRE+Blender with me, too.

Unique questions don't provide a solution to the likes of StudentofFortune.com
Though, would anything short of a standard exam be effective against such services? Unlikely.
Having prerequisite exams only incurs the effect of pushing final exams back two to three weeks.
Generally courses have other courses as prerequisites, and those courses have final exams.
There are a few things that probably need to change to make this work. First off, there's a macho intertwining of cars with manhood, power etc.
Sorry, but the macho-persona being responsible for selling cars in this day and age is not true. This may have been true in the 50s, 60s, and 70s but not since then.
