Just wondering how many of you here also use Cedega/Point2Play (http://www.transgaming.com). I've been using it for a few months now and I'm really impressed with the amount of work they put into this project and how quickly they release updates. Also, I wanted your opinion on the monthly subscription for updates. I mean, Linux is all about open-source and free software, but I think the miniscule amount they are asking for is a great way to support a community bringing games to linux. The latest releases are always available on bittorrent and sometimes irc, but once I found out that it actually worked I was more than happy to fork over $5USD a month to keep it going.

That's too bad, they're a great distraction :D

I should post some screenshots, so far all I have installed is Starcraft and Steam (counter-strike, etc). I actually get BETTER framerates in CS:S in Cedega than I do in Windows...gotta love the penguin. The next release due out in a couple of days will have full DX9 support...meaning we can run DX9 games fully now without bugs.
