Minecraft was a huge leap for gaming on the desktop on PC-BSD. My son loves using it on PC-BSD but STEAM is where he is spending more than half his time.... on Windoze!! > > StEam is in the process of moving over to Linux. Please don't fall behind in the effort of bringing this platform to BSD. Don't be fooled-- the people responsible for bringing Steam to Linux are the guys at Valve, not the "Linux people", whoever they are. Being non-free software, we are almost powerless in porting it. It does run great under Wine however. Chris
