The response:
So, the question would be is Gabe trolling or are they working on an as yet unannounced Linux build of steam and/or source.

Still, I am just sitting back and watching the fur fly myself. ;)

seems to be legit this time..alltho its quite close to 1st of april
True, but after like 20 people on the phoronix forums said they got a reply back from gabe I figured "Either michael has a lot of sock puppets or lots of people are getting replies", so I figured "why not" and sent one. I still figure Gabe's doing a massive Linux troll for april fools :(
Is there anything that connects wiki.tf to Valve and/or Steam? Though it obviously looks like a Steam store page, it's not.

On another note, the Steam Hardware & Software Survey has had a bug in the prompting process for some time, which effected the randomness of sampling (apparently only people who had previously been in the survey would receive a prompt). It's my guess that this goes as far back as prior to the Steam system profiler working under Wine. There are a bunch of interesting statistics that have appeared in the March survey results that were not in previous results.
The Steam Hardware & Software survey results can be found here. Of particular interest are a new "unknown" operating system, a new piece of audio hardware with a blank title, a range of new MSAA values (you need to view the Windows only stats to see this), and a few other bits and pieces.
Also, I try to maintain a list of details/info about the survey here.
Interesting to see an Unknown operating system on the list, It must be Linux as they list all Windows and Mac versions...
