Valve has opened the Steam for Linux Beta to the public. Now, all Linux fans can have a look at Valve’s latest project. All you have to do is download it, install it, and register to use Steam and you can join in.

The number of Linux titles has grown to 39 as of this writing, and rumors suggest that more are on the way. No one is saying what those additional titles might be, but rumors of other developers watching this closely are not just a myth.

Because of the move to an open beta of Steam for Linux, we have to believe that a full release is getting much closer. Those who have an interest should follow the Steam for Linux community site to get the latest information.
