Like 15% of my Steam library is playable on Linux, do you really understand what does FUD mean? or you just repeat it blindly when you read something you don't like about Linux? Linux is not a good platform for games. Steam does a good

I don't mind a Chrome App for a first iteration, but I completely mind when it's the excuse to neglect development on the desktop platform. Another example could be Authy.

Considering their "Universal Windows Apps" strategy, and the history of how Chrome went from a minimalistic browser to a bloated resource hog, keeping the browser with only the essential features makes more sense in the long term.

You can always extract it from NT4, just run this in the i386 folder: EXPAND.exe PINBALL.IN_ C:\PINBALL.INF Take the list of files from there, and expand them, ex. EXPAND.exe PINBALL.EX_ C:\PINBALL\PINBALL.EXE EXPAND.exe PINBAL
