If it is true - it is like a shot from a bow with an arrow in the back and knee in the same moment.
Sounds to good to be true, there any other confirmations on this?
I've only found quotes, and no mirrors.
The site seems like a joke. Take a look at some of the other articles (might have to prefix the URLs with 'cache:' to get Google's copy). Lets just flag this and move on.

I'd definitely like to see some other sources on this one!

Looks like hog-wash. Gabe knows that his main audience uses Windows.
Exactly. Why would they risk losing immense profit from the Windows-using crowd (read: most gamers)? This is BS.
If valve want to push a new platform, half-life 3 is an excellent flagship product to do so.
Seems to be fake. I did a Google search and buzzleberry.com is the only site covering this.
On top of that someone on this forum http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=6802 sais that buzzleberry is always writing made up articles.

Indeed some confirmation would be nice. What interests me is if it would be possible for Valve to provide HL3 on a Linux boot disk making adoption a lot easier for less technical users.. can anyone offer an insight on this?
A bootable Ubuntu DVD with HL3 preinstalled would be amazing indeed!

There is no one from Valve speaking at the conference.

CONFIRMED HOAX.

I feel bad submitting it now that it appears to be a hoax. Sorry everyone :(
It's not your fault. The origin of the fake story is to blame.
The process worked well in that the community was quickly able to assess the true credibility of the story, revealing the story as fake at a very early stage.
Had you not submitted it here, someone else might have put it in a different channel where it could have spread uncontrollably.

LOL, I didn't know that "Other" was an OS... Seems like a copy-paste problem...
