Remember how Phoronix insinuated it was just around the corner two years ago: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=valve_steam_announcement&num=1

I doubt Valve need two years to port it to Linux. With Gabe's track record of taking his time developing software, I don't think we should get our hopes up too soon.

If they want to support more than just a single version of a single linuxdistro, two years would be an incredibly fast port. Ask anyone who has done commercial software shipped binary-only for linux.

That was an unsourced claim which Valve denied ("There's no Linux version that we're working on right now. ", Aug 2010). http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2010-08-12-valve-on-steam-part-two-interview?page=2 http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2010-08-12-valve-on-st...

  Has Valve actually confirmed the rumour this time around?

    Gabe's email doesn't count?
