So if you run Quake 3 or RtCW or something with a native port, then 3D image quality and performance are very nearly identical. A little faster in Linux at low resolutions, a little faster in Windows at high resolutions, if I remember rightly. If you run non-native games (ports, emulators) then performance suffers but visual quality is generally still as good. If you use e.g. ATI or Matrox cards or you don't have a PC-compatible, then performance in Linux is significantly worse than Windows, varying from 10% to maybe 50% or more degradation. This is because not enough money is available to pay a full time driver development company. The Weather Channel deal announced on /. recently might change that in the coming months. The situation is universally better than on the classic Amiga of course. We must wait and see whether AOS4 will be able to live up to the fast AGP cards which could theoretically be used with an AmigaOne.
