Yeah and thats a good argument for not supporting Linux. It doesn't make sense to support a platform that you don't have any players on.

I'm hopeful that Valve will keep improving the Linux gaming experience, and then we will hit critical mass and a lot of gamers will be demanding Linux support.

Probably not, but one can hope :)

Unfortunately there is a lack of awareness how Microsoft treats Windows for desktop PCs and notebooks and how the future strategy looks like. Otherwise many people would move away faster.

Hmm how about the non tech savvy

They should listen to the tech savvy.
