Free is too expensive (Economist)
Interesting - would be good if Valve's games are ported, or even better if their Source engine is ported, but it won't have a huge effect on the overall market.
It will have a huge effect on the market share, because every game that runs on OS X will run on Linux as well. OS X will become non relevant and Linux will become much more valuable player and this will bring new software and increase its popularity further. Imagine free, rock solid and robust platform with dozens of great Open Source applications (and Steam) that is supported for five years (KUbuntu). This sounds exciting.
