Subject: Re: Linux plus World of Warcraft
Blizzard relented on those Linux users BTW. I have also seen articles about
running WoW under Crossfire where the folks said it worked reasonably well.
I have no clue whether that means they has no or few issues. WoW has
relatively low graphics requirements compared to some games so I suspect
that make it a more likely candidate for Linux using some Windows
replacement tech.
