Additionally, what changes are necessary for you to be able to use Linux full time?

@agelord

My main problem is that I have "legacy" games that don't work on Linux as well as Linux ports and native Linux builds being worse than their Linux counterpart.

#limuxgaming has come a long way and I'm curious and excited to see where it goes, but ease of use simply doesn't have parity. I want one click installs with identical performance.

The bigger issue with the #linuxdesktop in general is that no distro actually thinks about it as a product. 1/2

I rode in waves. Last time I switched back to Windows was just to play one game. As far as my life goes normally I'd do everything else in Linux so I dual boot. But I have 2 windows laptops for work and there's no getting around that.
