I see posts about gaming on SATLUG, GWLUG and ALG every so often but I honestly don't pay any attention to them because I've no interest in gaming. As best I recall, there's no good way to run any of the more popular Windows-centric games in Linux. Using VMWare would enable you to run Windows and Linux on the same machine. I know less about that than I do gaming but I'm willing to bet there are some good forums and/or tutorials online. -- Don Crowder http://www.don-guitar.com http://www.lockergnome.com/eldergeek/ http://don-guitar.blogspot.com/ http://www.myspace.com/donguitar A proud user of Debian Etch w/KDE. ______________________________________________________________________________ Highland Lakes Linux User Group (HLLUG): http://www.hllug.org HLLUG mailing list: //www.freelists.org/list/hllug
