Linux + U2

If I understand it correctly, U2 will only use DirectX. That would make it pretty darn tough to port over to Linux and the Mac. If this is true, what are these guys thinking?

I was afraid of that. A good way to approach things if all you care about is money.

Looks like if you want to support altnernate API's, Id software is a good place to start... unless they get sucked into M$ tawdry web of taking over the world.

(sigh)
