An article from this weekend that seemingly got buried by soundbites about the Steam Machine price in the same interview, but given that we have no information on price, this seems way more interesting to me. I mean…I basically self-select games that don’t use these kinds of anti-cheat at all, but this is important information for a lot of people, especially if you’re looking for an off-ramp from Windows and still want to play some of the most popular live service titles.
No ground pin? Is that power port DC?
It has the power supply internally so its definitely AC. It almost certainly just uses a galvanically isolated supply which is why it doesnt need a ground.
Neat. Thanks.
Looks like a standard IEC C8 plug. That would make it standard mains AC.
