Steam Machines?
|
|
Hey all, I've been looking around at the growing list of Steam Machines being teased around the interwebs, and a few look pretty freakin' amazing. I like the concepts for the most part, as well as the big push toward developing a very wide array of offerings, from bigarse gaming monsters to the ridiculously tiny SFF settop boxes. So far my favorite is the Maingear Spark, mostly because I have a tiny fetish (think Reducto from Harvey Birdman Atty. at Law).
Last LAN I went to (Nov), I didn't see many SFF systems around other than Lain's, and Drix and I were the only two rockin' laptops iirc. So, what are your thoughts?
As for SteamOS, I'm kinda on the fence. Creative scripting would be able to do the exact same thing with windows, but it's still a very interesting leap to move over to Linux as an underlying OS.
