Valve Linux Steam Client & Blog!

Im really excited! Valve are openly investigating a Valve steam client and having spent literally years on getting the damn thing running in all its updates over years in Ubuntu, I couldn't be happier!

This undoubtedly means continued work in crossplatform client online games - Windows, Mac and Linux gamers (and, sigh, consoles too I suppose) all on one game server - but also native running of the Source 2 engine.  Previoulsy Ive been using Wine / Cedega for all this but if its native, then thats just sweet!
