There's a repository you can get it from for fedora.  It's a limited
beta but all that means is that if you run steam, it tells you that you
aren't in the beta list, but if you give it arguments to go somewhere
particular, for instance to look at your software, then it works just
fine.  There's a number of steam games marked as linux architecture, and
if you've already bought a windows or mac version you don't have to pay
again for the linux version.  Also, tf2 is free.
