I wonder what that will do for the sale of the Steam Machine which should (theoretically) get people into PC gaming for much cheaper.

Valve said they won’t subsidise the cost of the Steam Machine, it will be roughly the same price as a regular PC.

I think that quote says it would be cost competitive with equivalent PC parts, which is cheaper than buying a prebuilt computer, fwiw. (And you’ll get a compact GabeCube instead of a big tower).

I expect GabeCubes might be my kiddos first desktops. CachyOS should run like a dream on 'em, so they’ll work great as both computers and entry-level gaming rigs.
