I find this disturbing neutral

You honestly get more FPS from running 3D games in VMware/Virtualbox than playing them in Wine?

As you're probably well aware, Wine isn't always the best solution. I've tweaked my guest OS (all the way down to IRQs) to the point where 3D output gets highest priority. That, coupled with the fact that my Windows 7 is essentially an empty shell (save for those apps you see) provides for a near-native experience. The underlying OS and active apps don't take up much resources at all. I plan on doing a writeup for the guest OS tweaks, but I've got a few bugs to iron out (I'd need to restart X session after using the guest.. but that's no biggy as most of my apps re-attach via screen anyway.

Wow, I'd like to see how you set that up! I'd love to use virtualization instead of wine. And yes, I have 3GB of RAM, so I should be good there smile

not sure if by that you mean virtualbox, but both the binary and open source edition are free, so i'm not sure i'd call it commercial
btw, how did you optimize the interrupt requests priority? smile

It would be totally sweet if you could write a tutorial on how to do that. Keep me posted if you do. This could potentially switch my brother (who is an avid gamer) to linux!

Installed arch like a week ago and since then I'm loving it.
Not much, just conky, gnome, ncmpcpp and some stuff over here and there.
Been trying many desktop managers but should try openbox as i've seen some pretty hot pictures on this thread. I come from ubuntu so I'm not really an expert when it comes to customization haha.
