Not even in the slightest. I run MSN + I can do Yahoo, AIM, you name it on Linux. Driver issues from the past also have been solved for about 7 years now. If you are talking for ISP, then that is a different story. I don't know anyone that uses MSN as an ISP or Yahoo either for that matter, so I doubt that has much affect in this situation. I doubt MSN even has that many clients.
This thread does show the general lack of knowledged about the platform however. I do find that angle interesting.

PS. Most games can be made to run as well with DX support. ALmost all OpenGL games run fine natively too. SH3 probably would run if you want to tweak it.
