There Are Games For Linux
At LANs I've been using Slackware (my main system) to play Unreal Tournament 2004 and a broken Windows 2000 system to play Quake III Team Arena and Counterstrike. I ordered a Linux version of Quake III Team Arena from Tux Games which I found from a friend (who never posts). I didn't receive it the first time they shipped it and after sending eight emails to them I received a message back stating that they weren't replying because they had significantly reconstructed their management and the shipping department had become very backed up.
I've finally received Quake III Team Arena and I actually got more than I expected because a Quake III Team Arena CD for Windows and a custom-made Linux version were included. I still have one problem: to install Quake III Team Arena you need Quake III Arena. I just ordered Quake III Arena from Tux Games and hopefully I get it before the next LAN.
On an unrelated note here is an article regarding food that is remotely related to Thanksgiving:
BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Can the planet feed us? which is part of the Planet Under Pressure news series.
