I actually found the article quite objective and putting Linux under a good light. But I read only the section about Linux so maybe I missed his personal opinion.

Interesting and good to see that Linux is taken into consideration when reviewing hardware.
However, it seems rather unprofessional for the author of this article to express his personal opinion and satisfaction or lack thereof with a particular brand, which serves no objective purpose other than reinforcing his own buying decisions.
There are many users out there and some are rather happy with the drivers. I've used both brands and was satisfied with both to varying degree but I'd never state my personal and completely subjective opinion in an article that supposedly reports about something. I'd write an article about my opinion to avoid facts (from what is reported on) being mixed with me subjective opinion which I might see reinforced by what is reported on.

I wouldn't assume that... they've got a bunch of writers, and no reason to think their biases are all uniform. It looks like this one is open to Linux gaming gaining momentum, at least in the form of SteamBox, and that's why he bothered to try installing SteamOS for the review and bothered to mention poor Linux compatibility as a weakness!

Quoting: WorMzyIsn't the Arse Technica article just another poorly veiled attempt to scare as many people away from Linux as possible? In their opinion, gaming on Linux is a stupid idea and will never take off, so nobody should even consider it and should just use Windows instead. :|

Cortex Command Soon To Be Re-ported, Says Developer

I've played both the native CC port and CC via wine. There are extra features in CC Windows (which I think is at 1.06) compared to the native port (wedged at 1.0rc) so I'm really hoping that the new port is better, faster and at feature parity.
Hey - Toribash came back to the Linux party, so I hold out some hope that CC will be back as a regular.

OMG! It has a SAVE feature, finally. I might actually attempt this again as I rarely have much more than 30 mins to play at a time (in between games of FTL:AE).
