It has been stated several times that the Source engine (client side) will
never run on Linux or Mac OS X

Wait-a-minute. Does that mean that the Source Engine uses Internet
Explorer to download files via HTTP? That's... dumb, with all due
respect. I don't deem IE too dependable and such a course of action only
fortifies my opinion of the Source Engine as a Windows-only platform
with a proof-of-concept Linux dedicated server package.

I know this statement sounds relatively harsh and I do acknowledge the
dedicated server team's massive efforts at writing the dedicated server
(very well done, guys!), I won't believe it's further than
proof-of-concept until I see the client running on Linux (or Mac OS X,
for that matter).
