Steam for Linux confirmed, might be this year

So admittedly I've been a bit vocal about Linux for the past few months and that's mainly because there's a lot going on there that people should be taking note of. The Linux landscape is changing and as it grows with popularity, it may eventually enjoy the same kind of success as Android, only on a smaller scale of adoption thanks to Microsoft's monopoly in the software market. But fear not, for things are even looking up for Linux gamers across the world, courtesy of Gabe Newell and Valve.

Excellent news :)

Gaming is the only real reason I still use windows.

Well if they can get linux ports of their and other companies games and have a very strong list of launch titles then i'd be very happy to move from gaming on both windows and linux to just linux.
