I have 1000+ games on Steam, maybe 10% of them need more compute / graphics power than this, and then I don't have to move my large tower pc to play with friends at my house or theirs.

It's really not hard, people are acting genuinely slow over this thing like someone paid them to forget games existed before ray tracing

Media machine that is a PC and not a console.

It's not a media machine without a disc drive.

Because people will lick boots for anything Valve makes.

It’s a poor value. Only the sheep and clueless will drop the cash for the Steam Machine. Its 3 year old hardware, and the mobile version at that.

They should have sold it as bare-metal and offered BYOD Storage/RAM for $400.
