Yeah... I bet there's someone at Blizzard shrugging and saying "Well, can't they just keep running it under Wine?"

Blizzard is not the same Blizzard that made games like Lost Vikings. They have become nought but a pawn to the mighty overlords at the behemoth that is Activision.

And to them, doing sometthing that'll make them a bit more money is not worth their time. They'd rather do something that'll make them BUCKETS of money. Linux ports are not it.
Quoting:...Lost Vikings...


Holy flashback Batman! That brings back memories :-D
