Linux gaming: don't sell your Xbox

Over at ExtremeTech, my colleague in crime, Jim Lynch, took a long, hard look at Linux gaming and declared, "Frankly, I've had it with gaming under Linux. It's not worth the time or the effort."

It's not that you can't run WoW (World of Warcraft) on Linux. With the latest CrossOver Office beta, you can do exactly that. Indeed, Lynch found that running World of Warcraft "ran so well that I began to get distracted from writing this review and started to get sucked into the world of Azeroth. I kept playing and didn't even realize that I was running WoW in a window on my KDE desktop in PCLinuxOS."
