Fw: Linux Has Better Windows Compatibility Than Vista

Several readers have written to tell us about one users rant in which
he tells the story of being so frustrated with gaming on Windows Vista
that he tried comparing gaming on Vista to that on Linux using Wine,
with surprising results. "This post is clearly a bit biased. What
shocked me though was how easy it was to find games that didn't run
under Vista but did in Linux by using Wine or DOSBox. I'm not a huge
gamer, so I don't have a huge collection of games to try out, but even
still with just a few hours of frustrating work, I have been able to
show that not only is Linux a reasonable alternative to Vista for
gaming (XP is still king though), but also that Linux handles
application failures more gracefully than Vista. Every game but
Blackthorne crashed my Vista box, this didn't happen a single time
under Linux."
