Hi Trenton, That is exactly what programming languages like Python and Java are for. They are easily shared amung Mac, Linux, and Windows and it makes porting apps between those platforms usually a breeze. As for running Windows games on Linux it is possible, but a pain in the rear to do. You have to use Windows emulation software like Wine, configure it, copy many key dll files from Windows to yur emulator, install all dependancies, and even if you get game x to runm via wine it will be slower and less responsive do to the emulation layer. I did one time get GMA Tank Commander to run under Linux, but it was a serious pain to get working. Basically, not worth the effort unless you are like a die-hard Linux user and refuse to use Windows for a gaming machine.
