If after installing Wine, you install PlayonLinux, you can scan the list of games and programs supported and you will find steam, Just ask PlayonLinux to first install it, then run it...Works a treat, everything on Steam itself works great...Some games do, some don't...But I haven't enough time in on this to say for sure they won't.":O}
