Quake 4 is native on Linux, too...I vaguely recall seeing Linux binaries for Q4 on Id's FTP server before it hit store shelves even. Go hit ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/ for the Linux binaries. You will need your Q4 media to install it. Atari is likely to release UT2007 the same way they did with UT2004: Linux and Windows binaries on the same DVD. -- Paul Johnson Email and IM (XMPP & Google Talk): baloo@ursine.ca
