Please stop calling Linux SteamOS; as far as I am aware it is just another Linux distro.
I will not be using SteamOS itself, I will be using Xubuntu (most likely) when I switch other from Win7 in a month's time...
As far as TW3 port is concerned, I haven't checked if the Windows build uses OpenGL or DirectX, but generally speaking companies that do not use OpenGL as the default rendering API are asking for trouble when porting.
(Same goes for OpenCL vs CUDA etc...)
Hell, I could go as far as to say that companies that do not write their software in Java are asking for trouble in the long term as I see Android gaining more and more ground.
