Valve shouldn't step into the hardware arena, lots of software companies end up eating it when they branch into such a burdensome extension to their business.
A linux based PC isn't going to be a hot seller since you can't take along all your games that you've purchased through Steam to it.
These android based mini console/pc's have a better chance at success, google has 70%+ of the cell phone market making all these types of devices more consumer friendly.

Bad move. It's the tv that will be the computer in a year or two. He should be working with the tv manufacturers to sign deals to have steam a default app on the tv. Why waste money on a another console type thing? Gabe needs to rethink his plan. I like this idea!
Basically your personal OnLive/Gaikai. Leave your high end PC in your computer room or wherever and stream it to your big assed TV over Ethernet.
Once in a blue moon I do like to play a game on my large TV instead of at my desk. Here I don't have to buy another machine or drag my computer into the room. |

I guess they're going to market that as a console? Because their existing customer base is not very likely to go and buy this...

You know there was one company that was the king of PC gaming and then it made a console and it nearly ruined PC gaming.
But then there was this awesome game company that made a awesome digital download service that people trusted with their games that helped keep PC gaming relevant and afloat.
But then they made a console.... |

So Gabe, on one side you hate Win8 for it's Walled Garden approach and on the other side you want to build a Walled Garden of your own and that is OK? Yeah... right!
Do you get internet under your rock? Because if you do, you might have heard something about Valve porting Steam and their games to linux.
Personally, I'm not a linux fan, but if you want open, there ya go. |
