12 days agoI was just talking to a friend of mine last night over beers about how he’d pay to not have all these companies foist AI on him, and my response then was what it is now. Don’t give them any ideas.

I love that every single time I see someone mention the older “steam machines” from way back when they lable them as horrible. I own one. It was amazing. I had to download custom software to overclock it because the software limited me more than the hardware. And it wasn’t even an i7. For the form factor and the price I paid for it, it was totally worth it and not crappy at all.
I’m looking forward to seeing what steams actual hardware will do.
I think that data includes the prices for RAM, and the price point they’re hoping to sell it at. I don’t mind the idea of buying this to literally just put in my entertainment center. I wouldn’t even mind upgrading the RAM when it eventually comes down in price or I can save up for it.
But since I already have a steam deck equivalent handheld running Bazzite, I also already have a lot of the peripherals I’d want in order to make this useful for streaming or other services, so it’s not a huge barrier to entry for me. The form factor is what I’m looking for too. Without all the stupid LED’s and BS.
