    Yes! Time to delete Windows partition, throw it out with the putrid garbage where it belongs, and save some hard drive space for more cowbell. EVE Online players waiting for the Mac and Linux clients can now test them on Multiplicity, the test server, before they officially go live on all servers when Revelations 2.3 deploys on November 6th. You might as well get an early start and get everything up and ready, prepare for the rats and skills and what about EVE Mon. I like to play with that too. The bad news is that the Linux client does not support ATI graphic cards, which probably has something to do with driver support. (heh. I've had more problems with ATI cards running EVE Online than Nvidia cards. The 8800GT just launched and the reviews look sick and it doesn't cost a kidney and an eyeball either -- it will be my next card). The Mac client supports either Nvidia or ATI graphic cards, but to run the Mac client an Intel based Mac that is 2 Ghz or better is required. Further system requirements and how-to-install for both Mac and Linux clients, including download links to the EVE Online Mac and Linux clients are after the jump:
