When's the last time you've tried? I think you'd be pleasantly surprised, especially if you like to play any Valve games or smaller indie games.

  You're right - almost a third. Better than the 10% I floated. I'm suitably impressed. Unfortunately that does little to help the cause though - 33% is enough to get me to say "not bad", but when you pitch the average consumer with a "you can totally use 33% of this cars features" well realistically that salesperson is getting laughed at.

    > you can totally use 33% of this cars features Bad analogy. A better one: out of all these cars, you can pick 33% of them. The games you can use are functional.

      Not really - worse. The bulk of gamers already have Steam profiles with games. And since the majority of those will be Windows users they wouldn't have selected only linux compatible ones. i.e. They're in the same position as me - switching to linux would kill the majority of their games (2/3rds in my case) AND limit any future selections. It's a complete non-starter.

      You can pick 33% of these games - oh, and here's $75 that you would have spent on Windows.
