Honestly I'm a huge League of Legends fan, and video gaming really is the
reason that my desktop (not my server or workstation) still boots into
windows. Things like crossover and the steam for linux project definately
help bridge that gap and let me take my workstation linux off the VM and
onto the baremetal.
