Linux computers and PC gaming

Anyone here use a linux computer for gaming? I know it's much harder to play Windows based games because there's a lot more you have to do to be able to get the game to work on a linux pc. I have Ubuntu 10.04 and I've been able to get some games working, thing is they tend to run much slower.

But, who here enjoys gaming on a Linux ran PC? And what's your specs? My current specs aren't that great, the only great thing about it is that is has 3GB of RAM but it can't seem to run Minecraft at full speed.

Well Linux is an odd thing indeed. I have nothing against Linux but it never clicked when it came to being a new OS that would have some kind of mark in that community. To be honest, I want to work on my own OS with good friends here and make something that would define gaming and Operating Systems as a whole and possible unlock new potential in the computer and gaming industries.
