Gabe Newell, the co-founder and managing director of the video game development and online distribution company Valve Corporation, has reportedly mentioned the latest Windows product, Windows OS 8 a "catastrophe". This makes them give a much more priority for Linux. According to him, Linux is now a step backward only in the case of Games. So the Valve Corporation is now giving much more importance in developing for Linux.
In the mean time there had been other reviews coming from different people about the drawbacks of windows 8. Earlier this year, Stardock CEO Brad Wardell wrote an article for Kotaku about Windows 8's issues. Wardell called the new operating system a "usability nightmare." If all the PC users derive at this kind of a conclusion, definitely it would draw more and more users to the Linux community!!
