dude, in linux you can't play directx games easily
ppl these days are looking for the best gaming OS to be installed in their PC. Vista is ONLY for DX 10+, as its slow in DX 9 games. So we all fall back to Windows XP, as win 98 and 2000 can't run most of the games. If windows server 2003 is better at gaming, whats wrong with switching to it ?
