there are some older games that rely on multi threading and even on a modern system this can cause some serious performance issues, again, this is getting solved though.

@megopie Yeah, I guess you're right. I know that GTA III, San Andreas, and Vice City play better on Linux than Windows. I'm enjoying those very much.

@megopie I just enjoy being Windows-free. I've been on Arch now for 4 years and it has been nothing but great.
