Linux and Unix users have seen many new improvements in gaming over the last couple of years with Steam, and open GL. However the glarring whole in premeir programs has been Starcraft, and Blizard Games. For many of us who are Linux users, it is the single reason we continue to use Windows over our prefeered opereating system.

As an informal poll from: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/348917-starcraft-2-for-linux

It shows 92% of Liquid users who took the poll want a linux port. Many of us would buy, or rebuy new copies of Starcraft only for this reason.
