BTW, very cool gig you had Eric.  I too fondly remember Battletech (board game) Mechwarrior and Shadowrun on the RPG front (plus the video games of course).  Even made it out to the Battletech Center in Navy pier a ways back.  that place was cool.

Back when I had more free time I used to play W3 Frozen Throne on battle.net with no problems using Cedega. If you don't know this already, id software are heroes, as they have native linux ports of all their games, and write their gfx code in openGL so its not tied to windows and DirectX. If you've got questions, send them our way and we'll do the best we can. If anybody wants to see a demo of Cedega at the meeting this month, I'd be happy to oblige. Also, if anybody is asking will game 'X' work under linux, and can't find answers, I'd be willing to let you try on my machine/setup if you bring install materials. (I've got a Geforce 6250Go, which isn't that amazing, but is nice for a laptop.) (Also, I will definately not turn down any promo stuff you're generous enough to send my way! I still remember fondly gunning down anything that moves in a TimberWolf in Mechwarrior2 for my 486/66DX2 way back in the day!) -Max On Sat, 2006-10-07 at 19:15 -0500, Matthew Johnson wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Hi Eric: Good to email-meet you. I'm not really into games until very recently, but I do like linux. The past week or so I've been downloading a bunch of LiveCDs (CDs that will boot your machine directly) to play with and see how they work with my computer. I did download Games Knoppix 3.7 which is supposed to boot on any machine so you can play games on it. These are all linux games of course. You can find a list to many LiveCDs on Frozen Tech's LiveCD list. I put a link to is on my delicious page with the LiveDistro tag. So far I've downloaded GamesKnoppix, KnoppMyth, Knoppix, Damn Small Linux, Ultimate BootCD, and Ubuntu. Kind of fun.
