Re: Moving from Windows to Linux Question

Please don't shout at me on this one! :)

(I think the game is great and have no complaint/beef. I bought the CD (for the manual, and anyway I prefer to). I shall only be using the Windows version.)

Why do Shrapnel care about giving downloaders alternative OS downloads if they want/request it? Given that they've given me multi-OS on CD.

Given that you would be using the same licence key for linux as for windows, there doesn't seem to be any other reason for the restriction on downloading the game for multiple platforms.

Sigh :-(
