- simpleboy, on 03/25/2008, -0/+4Looks promising! Nice to see such highly pixelated graphics in Linux for the first time
- sinatosk, on 03/25/2008, -0/+2before people start saying the title is inaccurate... it's not... could have been worded differently I know... but they are Nvidia demo's... just running under wine :p
just thought I would say that - sinatosk, on 03/25/2008, -0/+1Which is why I stated my comment but it's not inaccurate... just like how Microsoft advertised Silverlight as cross platform... people assume it works under Windows, Linux and Mac... when infact it was just Windows and Mac.

The title is correct... it's not inaccurate and it's not the authors fault that people's minds are fixed upon what they want to hear and/or see... companies/businesses/corporations whatever you want to call them knows this.
I just don't want to see digg users falling for this... illusion shall I say :p
anyway glad to see these demo's run well on Linux as I want to use Linux more but cannot because developers still mostly working on Windows... just like developers mostly working with 32bit and not 64bit ( that's right Adobe your one of them ) still... - cquinnd, on 03/25/2008, -0/+1So it is not Nvidia that is running WINE, or had developed the Demos using WINE, or was actually running the demos themselves on WINE?
