But don’t expect binary file games written for one platform to work with another – no system does that completely, though Linux is the best at it (Wine).

Most users have no idea what “support” technically entails, or they would know better than to expect it. You need a compatible binary program, or to compile it from source on the desired system, and the source has to be compatible with that system’s methods/resources. Mac doesn’t support any Windows binary programs at all, period. Windows doesn’t support any Mac binary programs at all, period. Binaries are simply not compatible, and you need a binary for Windows for a program to run on Windows. Surprisingly, Linux can run many Windows binaries, including some games, but these are exceptions due to open-source creativity. It’s just one of the ways Linux out-performs Windows.

Once again, this OS is targeted at *netbooks*. Even if it has full Windows compatibility (doubtful) are you really going to have a frag-fest on your eee?
