They will think it's a filthy console, but then they will see their lord Gaben on it
Never tell me the odds |

| It'll likely revolutionize the console market, but I highly doubt it'll be as good as gaming on an actual desktop PC. |

| I really don't get the Steambox. It's like a PC... but a console? I'll just stick to my PC without making it a console and stuff. |

@Video- It's a console created by a PC developer. Its specs are (sadly) closed and non-upgradeable, so it won't be nearly as good as PC gaming. That said, I'll be planning to do most of my casual (console) gaming on it when it comes out. |

I'm almost certain it'll be pre-installed on every player's console the day they buy it.

@Assassin
That would be awesome. A good idea for the Steam Box is if the player already has a Steam account on their PC, they can connect 'em together and get all their games from Steam onto their Steam Box - No charge. |

I'm not expecting the Steambox to succeed, really. It's either going to be a watered-down PC that will be overpriced or Xbox: Gabe Newell edition.

| I could've sworn that I'd read it somewhere, but I realize I may be incorrect after doing a bit of research. Serves me right for pulling "facts" out of my rear without confirming them whatsoever. |

| Steambox = Mini-Tower Linux based PC that is sold by Valve. |
