Linux has better Windows compatibility than Vista
,----[ Quote ]
| But recently my blood has been set to a rolling boil by the fact that most of
| my games just don’t work in Vista. At all. Its so bad that out of spite I
| have decided to make a list of games that work better in Linux under Wine
| than in Vista. These are games that were originally written to run in Windows
| XP, are broken in Vista, but magically work in Linux.
