I think that it's strange that Valve doesn't spend its billions on a high-performing Wine alternative. If they truly feel threatened by Windows, this is the way to go. It allows people to install Linux, have access to all their legacy titles, and allows Valve full control over their client. Win-win-win.

Yes I'm disappointed but not surprised that SteamOS is not making much of a dent. It was mostly huff and puff but when all the cards fell, Valve wasn't very (monetarily or otherwise) committed to moving PC gaming to Linux. It would take at least a billion dollars (not exaggerating) to get the industry to take them seriously on several fronts.
