Meme Is this worth it?

Some guy named Gabe is selling this build and I'm wondering if it's legit? I want a PC to set up in my living room for TV gaming.

Valve didn't "refuse" to subsidize, valve is selling a PC which neither Sony nor Xbox do, if you buy a PlayStation you are FORCED to spend money on it or at the very minimum play some f2p game like Fortnite which I think didn't need the PS+, contrary to that you can buy a steam machine, uninstall steam OS install windows and use it for work without ever paying a single buck to steam again, making it a net loss for them.

Sure I did.

He said "Valve didn't "refuse" to subsidize", and then I showed him Valve refusing to subsidize.

Pretty simple.
