      I am not gonna buy it. But fuck man, I am exited as hell for what is going to happen with PC gaming and OSes. I feel that thanks to Valve we going to finally break MS’ iron grip on OS market.

        Same here.

        Whilst I don’t necessarily think Steam are doing it because of being good guys (I just think it makes good business sense for them to move gamers away from Windows), that doesn’t mater for the outcomes for gamers, what maters is that what they’re doing helps us all out to escape the ever tightening clutches of Microsoft which nowadays is basically an Evil Tech Corp.

      A few years ago? I would have said “oh that’s near for laypeople, but I am better off building my own PC”.

      With the prices of GPU’s, RAM, and SSD’s… The Steam Machine might legit be a better value than building it myself.

      I’m considering one to swap out the Xbox in the living room, but I also have a Lenovo Legion Go that I rarely use so I may just use that.
